The new interior contains innovative digital media solutions that will transform the
shopping experience at this iconic Oxford Street location. The technology was provided and
installed by AVM Impact, a leading audio visual and digital media company.
The new technology includes two nine screen video walls positioned at the main
entrances from Vere Street and Marylebone Lane - creating an impressive visual array,
which complements the high design standards across the store.
On the ground floor feature area is a cluster of 65" and 46" ceiling suspended
displays, enhancing the impact of this focal point. Five beauty brands within the
cosmetics hall have also seen a facelift with pillar mounted 46" screens which will
reinforce brand presence and inspire the customer journey with digital content that can be
viewed and updated remotely.
Andrew Nelson, Retail Director at AVM Impact said "Debenhams is leading the way in
in-store digital media, bringing its retail estate in line with changing consumer
expectations, creating a unique customer experience.
"Debenhams is one of three retailers that AVM Impact is working with on Oxford Street,
the UK's most prominent retail location. It's clear to see the increasing trend from
retailers wanting to invest in digital technology, enabling them to better inform, engage
and influence consumers in their buying decisions. The digital transformation of retail is
moving at an incredible pace and we're excited to be at the heart of it."
The new Debenhams flagship Oxford Street store was officially launched on Monday 2nd
December. It includes seven new floors including their biggest ever beauty hall, a new
destination shoe hall, three places to eat and an inspirational new home floor.
