Customers will benefit from new Connected Retail features including a café partnership with Kaffe O
Remus Uomo has announced the relocation of its Belfast store from Victoria Square to a new flagship retail space in the city centre.
Its new home at Unit 2, 16–22 Arthur Street will represent an investment of more than £500k and is almost double the size of its former unit, marking a significant milestone in the brand’s growth strategy.
The premium menswear brand has said it is planning to open doors to customers in late September 2025.

All existing Victoria Square staff will transfer to the new store, alongside the creation of a new Retail Store Director role and up to two additional positions.
The Arthur Street flagship will debut a re-imagined retail concept for the brand, blending Nordic-inspired design with industrial Belfast heritage.
Customers will benefit from new Connected Retail features, offering a seamless experience across online and offline channels, alongside personal wedding appointments and a café partnership with local favourite Kaffe O, encouraging shoppers to treat the space as a destination.
A spokesperson said: “The move sees Remus Uomo join one of Belfast’s most vibrant retail destinations, just around the corner from Corn Market and alongside recent additions such as Anthropologie, Charles Tyrwhitt and Marella.
“Further redevelopment is also underway on the street, positioning Arthur Street as a hub for premium lifestyle and fashion brands.
“Remus Uomo was established in 1991 as part of Belfast-based fashion house Douglas & Grahame (est. 1924). The brand has operated stores in Belfast for three decades, from its first CastleCourt location in 1995 to Victoria Square in 2007. The Arthur Street flagship represents the next chapter in its retail evolution.”
The Arthur Street flagship will act as the blueprint for Remus Uomo’s wider retail strategy, with plans to open further stores in strategic locations across the UK in the coming years.
Commenting on the move, Adam Finlay, Managing Director of Douglas & Grahame Ltd said: “This is a real moment for the brand. Over the past seven years we have been laying the foundations to take Remus Uomo into the future.
“Delivering a re-imagined flagship experience in the brand’s home city is a major step forward – one that allows us to strengthen our community in Belfast, deliver a connected retail experience, and set the business up for further growth.”
Michael Finlay, Brand Director at Remus Uomo added: “We had been looking for a larger space – and one with real character – to give us the scale and the environment to deliver the all-new, elevated flagship experience we are planning for our customers.
“Arthur Street offered the perfect setting to bring that vision to life, while keeping us at the heart of Belfast’s most exciting retail district.”
