Giant Store Tugby set to open neighbouring Cafe Ventoux

Giant Store Tugby will join the Giant family this Autumn in a new location that caters to all cyclist’s needs. The new store will be neighbouring Cafe Ventoux, a popular cycling café in Rutland and Leicestershire area.

When sharing the news Ian Beasant, Managing Director of Giant UK, commented, “We are delighted to be coming back to the area to serve our loyal customers with great products and riding experiences.”

The store off the A47 between Leicester and Peterborough, aims to be the ultimate destination for cyclists and cycling, offering a wide selection of products from Giant, Liv, Momentum and CADEX brands.

Beasant continued, “The new store will host many community events in-store and at Cafe Ventoux.”

Brian Jordan, Founder of Café Ventoux and Tugby Orchards, said, “Since Cafe Ventoux opened in 2015, we’ve attracted many cyclists as a true cycling destination; now, with the new Giant Store opening, this firmly puts us on the map as a true mecca for all cycling disciplines.”

When the store opens later this year, customers can browse a wide selection of bikes, including road, mountain, lifestyle, electric and children’s bikes, with a selection of hire bikes for people wanting to explore the fantastic riding on the doorstep.

Ed Tiernan, Business Operator of Café Ventoux commented, “We’re excited to build a relationship with the team at Giant, and look forward to putting on a wealth of quality cycling events for our community of riders”

The announcement also highlights that the brand proposes to roll out further brand stores in key target locations. Giant brand stores have opened in Cambridge and Stirling in the past 6 months.
