Brand Message

Making fashion more free.

The styles you want right now, at a price you won't believe.
We want to deliver this to everyone.
Because we want people to enjoy fashion more freely.
Because we want life to be more exciting.

The Story of GU

It's only just started.

GU, in span of just eight years since its founding, boasts annual sales of over one hundred billion yen. And we show no signs of slowing down. The largest factor in GU's rapid growth is the continuous attempt to reach new heights while keeping speed in mind. From product development focused on quickly finding the latest global trends to the acceleration of a more digital life that is in tune with your way of life or actively opening stores overseas, we can't even keep count of all the challenges we've taken on. Of course, there have been many failures. But failures pave the way for future successes. Our goals moving forward are annual sales of one trillion yen and to speed up our overseas expansion. We are making fashion more free, and our undertakings have only just begun.

Establishment of an R&D Center in London.

This design center was established to gather the latest information that would form the base of product development, including design information on trends, materials, and color schemes. We have constructed an infrastructure that makes the most up-to-date products through the development of design concepts and season themes along with the Tokyo R&D Center.

GU in other cities of the world

CHINA (Four locations)

In only seven years since the birth of the brand, GU opened "GU UNIQLO Shanghai Store", the first overseas location, inside UNIQLO's global flagship store in September 2013. The following year, GU opened the first overseas independent store, and it became a hot topic that attracted long lines of customers. We are planning on using this experience to further pursue overseas expansion.

TAIWAN (Seven locations)

Central Taipei City had its first store open in September 2014, and the second one in October. GU has a good name in Taiwan, where a large population of people are interested in fashion and enjoy following the latest trends. We are actively looking into future developments focused in Taiwan, as it has much potential and matches well with our vision.
