Arket is to launch its first physical store in France this autumn with the opening of a flagship shop in Paris.

The H&M owned business said the new store will provide a complete lifestyle experience and offer fashion and accessories for women, men and children, as well as interior essentials for the home.

The store will also feature an Arket café which will be developed and led by acclaimed Swedish chef Martin Berg and offer a vegetarian menu, seasonal pastries and organic speciality coffees.
