The shop will build on Sky's existing presence in the city with head office locations and Sky Studios in close proximity to London.
The new shops are the first time Sky has had a full retail presence which brings together its innovative Mobile, Broadband and TV products all under one roof, and with dedicated expert advisers and bespoke areas throughout the shop.

The shop will be separated into designated themed spaces across an open-plan layout, encouraging easy and safe conversation between Sky's expert advisors and customers. It will also have a dedicated Customer Hub', complete with seating areas, that will allow existing customers to speak to advisors about their current products.
A dedicated Access All Areas Stage' will host various interactive experiences for customers, creating moments that entertain and surprise, putting customers at the centre of Sky's extraordinary entertainment content and leading products.
Customers will be able to test out Sky's latest innovations, displayed across the shop for maximum convenience and accessibility, for the first time. Shoppers can experience Sky's award-winning Sky Q technology, including entertainment content from Sky and established partners such as Netflix and Disney, and new, innovative partnerships with fitness apps, Fiit and Peloton. This provides customers with the opportunity to make the most out of Sky's products and services and ensure they take home the right products for them.
Matthew Price, Retail Director, Sky UK commented: We are delighted to be opening our first ever retail shop in London at Westfield Stratford City. This marks the first time Sky has ever had a bricks and mortar retail presence in the capital and this is a proud moment for the business. The shop will allow Sky to showcase the amazing benefits it has to offer new and existing customers.
