Thrive Lifestyle Store to bring art, handmade giftwares and tasty treats to 34 Orwell Road, Felixstowe

Penn Commercial has welcomed Thrive Lifestyle Store to 69 sq m (738 sq ft) Class E retail premises 34 Orwell Road, Felixstowe, to open this Summer. 

Founder and artist Megan has been operating a shop at the beautiful Helmingham Hall Gardens for some years, where she opens seasonally. Since launching Thrive Lifestyle Store at Helmingham, Megan has been building a collection of some of East Anglia’s best independent artists and small businesses, with sustainability at the core, celebrating joyful design, made with care.

Owner Megan Clark, says:

"Thrive Lifestyle Store is a small, family-run business, and we’re passionate about championing local, independent makers, artists and small businesses. Felixstowe has always been a much loved destination for our family and we’re thrilled to be launching Thrive Lifestyle Store in the town this Summer.

"Alongside a carefully curated collection of handmade gifts, homewares and accessories, we will be creating a new destination to stop for a delicious coffee and yummy treat, too. We’re really proud to be working with other local businesses to bring our vision to life.

"34 Orwell Road is an exciting new chapter for us, and the space will allow us to bring you a programme of amazing creative workshops led by local artists and makers. We can’t wait to welcome everyone very soon and build a thriving community at our new store! 

"Thrive Lifestyle Store in Felixstowe will continue to be focused on bringing quality, design-led items to fill your homes and hearts. We love sharing stories, showing the faces behind the brands and celebrating the power of shopping small!"

34 Orwell Road has previously been home to baby boutique Fox + Bramble, which has since relocated.
