Yorkshire vintage clothes company expands with new pop-up store

The company processes up to 20,000 kgs (44,000 lbs) of second-hand clothing every week, producing 12,000 garments a month from its sewing factory. Every piece of clothing produced and sold by Glass Onion was originally thrown away and destined for landfill.

Dan Green, Glass Onion director of finance and operations, said: “With special thanks to Mason Thomas Law for such a quick turnaround and for being so reactive. We really appreciate the support and service they have given us throughout this process.”

Sheffield-based commercial property law firm Mason Thomas Law negotiated the lease on the new 3000 sq. ft premises, which is located on Lower High Street in Meadowhall.

In addition to the new Meadowhall pop-up shop, Mason Thomas Law also negotiated the lease for Glass Onion’s Division Street store which opened in Sheffield City centre in October 2023.

The opening of the Division Street shop heralded the start of Glass Onion’s plans to open on high streets throughout the UK over the next three years.

John Hickling, said: “The demand for a unique product like ours, is definitely there and I see our expansion on high streets in the UK as being very much part of the future for Glass Onion.”
