Plantamamita Returns to Worcester City Centre with Chapel Walk Opening
An award-winning Worcester independent business has officially returned to the city
centre with the opening of its new store in Chapel Walk Worcester.
Plantamamita, known for its specialist indoor plants, botanical styling and immersive
workshops, has made a phenomenal start since opening the doors to its beautifully
designed new unit, attracting strong interest both online and from visitors to the centre.
The business was previously based within Worcester city centre before relocating to
larger premises on London Road, where it continued to grow a loyal customer base and
expand its offering. The new Chapel Walk opening now gives Plantamamita a renewed
city centre presence alongside its established London Road location.
Adding to the excitement surrounding the opening, Plantamamita has also recently been
recognised at the prestigious RHS Malvern Spring Festival, where the business was
awarded a 4 Star Trade stand Award — highlighting the quality, creativity and
presentation that has helped make the business so popular across Worcestershire.
The opening follows the successful relocation of long-standing independent retailer Knit
N Stuff, which recently moved from its Chapel Walk unit into a larger premises in Friary
Walk after outgrowing its original location due to continued success and customer
demand.
The move created the opportunity for Plantamamita to return to the city centre and bring
its distinctive plant-focused retail experience into Chapel Walk.
Mike Lloyd, Centre Manager at Chapel & Friary Walk Worcester, said:
“We are absolutely delighted to welcome Plantamamita to Chapel Walk Worcester. The
response from visitors has already been fantastic and the shop itself looks absolutely
stunning.
It is especially positive to see successful independent businesses continuing to invest in
Worcester. Knit N Stuff’s move into a larger unit in Friary Walk is a brilliant example of
growth within the centre, and it has allowed another established Worcester business to
return to the city centre with an exciting new presence in Chapel Walk.
The recent recognition at RHS Malvern Spring Festival also highlights the passion, creativity
and quality behind the business, and we are excited to see Plantamamita continue to grow
within the city centre.”
Liuva Chacon, Owner of Plantamamita, said:
“We are incredibly grateful for all the opportunities coming our way. As an independent
family-run business, we approach every opportunity with hard work, determination and a
genuine passion for what we do — something that originally started in a garden shed during
lockdown.
