What To Expect From The Jellycat General Store Pop-Up In Birmingham

Spanning a massive 1,830 sq ft, the Bimingham General Store has become Jellycat’s largest UK outpost – and its most festive. Inspired by nostalgic shopping experiences in vintage supermarkets, the General Store comes kitted out with counters, shelves and geometric floor tiles (all in Jellycat’s signature blue) as well as orange jelly-inspired lighting. A quick browse of the imitation fridges – organised by ‘category’ – showcases the toy brand’s latest releases and limited edition festive creations, just in time for Christmas.

‘We’re delighted to welcome the new Jellycat General Store to Selfridges Birmingham,’ commented Sam Watson, Selfridges Birmingham Store Director. ‘It’s a fun destination for customers to explore the Jellycat collection with over 300 creations to choose from. Who could resist cuddling up to one of the giant Jellies? Our customers are huge fans of Jellycat so this new opening is perfect timing for those starting their Christmas shopping.’
