THE GALERIES LAFAYETTE PHILOSOPHY:
TURNING EVERY VISIT INTO A UNIQUE SHOPPING EVENT

We understand that each customer is expecting something great and special from their visit to our stores. That’s why we look at every storefront as an opportunity to astonish our guests, not just with grand presents, but with grand presence. From amazing staging to inspiring offers and products, and through careful attention from our dedicated staff, we celebrate the desire for newness and creativity.

This has always been a key philosophy of Galeries Lafayette. We built a strong lovemark and inspired millions by encouraging the boldness of retailtainment and bringing the audacious into our client’s life. And this is how we instil a rather liberating retail experience the world over. We glorify this never-ending need for renewal that our customers constantly seek. We inspire and energise them every day, here, at 21 High st – the ultimate outdoor shopping destination. Our values are the principles we live by, to guide our behaviour and to act as a corporate compass to ensure we keep on the right path internally and express ourselves in a consistent manner externally.
