Loft's New Store Opening in Shinjuku

Loft Co., Ltd., based in Shibuya, Tokyo, is thrilled to announce the opening of its new store, "Shinjuku Loft," located on the third floor of the Shinjuku Marui building in Shinjuku, Tokyo. Slated for mid-November 2025, this opening marks Loft's 38th store in the Tokyo area and revives its presence in the Shinjuku market, following the closure of the previous Shinjuku Loft in 2007.

Why Shinjuku?

The Shinjuku Marui is one of the largest commercial facilities in the area and has garnered considerable support since its original opening in May 1974. After a significant renovation in 2009, the facility has continued to thrive, situated within walking distance from the bustling Shinjuku Station, which sees an average of 3 million passengers daily. The store’s location benefits from high visibility and foot traffic, especially given the area’s high inbound tourist ratio of 57.4%, making it an ideal spot for Loft's unique offerings.

A Unique Shopping Experience

The new Loft store aims to create an enticing environment where customers can discover a variety of exciting products. With approximately 388 tsubo (around 1,282 square meters) of retail space, this location will be the first Loft store in the metropolitan area to feature a one-floor layout. Its innovative design will allow customers to navigate through a diverse collection of categories:

• - Beauty and Health Essentials
• - Stationery and Office Supplies
• - Variety Goods
• - Daily Living Articles

By implementing an efficient layout that balances seasonal ("市") and staple ("蔵") products, Loft is focused on delivering on its promise: "There’s something here. There’s definitely something!"
