Flying Tiger Copenhagen is expanding its U.S. footprint.
The discounter will open a 2,100-sq.-ft. store at City Point, in downtown Brooklyn, on April 21. The Danish home retailer offers a quirky, ever-changing assortment of product, ranging from home goods to toys to electronics and more, with many created by the company’s in-house design team in Denmark.
"Danish design is immensely popular in the U.S., and Flying Tiger Copenhagen's strength is that we can offer Danish design at surprisingly affordable prices," said Søren Friis, head of North America.
The Brooklyn location is Flying Tiger Copenhagen's fifth store in the United States, all in the New York area. This expansion reflects Flying Tiger Copenhagen's explosive international growth, with two to three store openings worldwide every week. The company, which opened its first store in 1995, in Copenhagen, currently operates a total of 780 stores in 28 countries across Europe, Asia and the U.S.
