Mantidy<\/a>, the London-based lifestyle brand for men, opened a pop-up shop in London’s Marylebone<\/a> neighborhood. Serving up exclusive offers, free personalization and gift wrapping, the shop opened just in time for the Holidays on a buzzy street.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

John McKenzie, Mantidy’s founder, created the brand to combine functionality and design to offer the perfect travel companion for men who are on the go. The collection includes high-quality all-in-one accessories and organizers made from herringbone weave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A visit to this pop-up shop reflected the care Mckenzie took in designing the shop and making sure each product was on full display. “With each of our pop-up stores, we try to engage with our customers and get feedback,” <\/em>McKenzie says. He also notes that his preferred time to pop up is during Q4 to capitalize on the Holiday season, as well as Summer, “because of tourist traffic”.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As to the neighborhoods he chooses to pop-up in, McKenzie states that “we choose locations where the demographic fits our product”,<\/em> adding that high foot-traffic plays a crucial role in the pop-up spaces he chooses. “We always do a bit of walking around the area and talking to the neighbors [before we open up shop]. Just looking at different times of the day before you move in to see the footflow and the people walking past [really helps].”<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
