New Birmingham Islamic Impressions Store… OPENING SOON
Assalamu-Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuhu.
Alhamdulillah we have finally decided on where to open our next store. We have just taken a property in the Sparksbrook area of Birmingham and by Ramadhan inshallah Islamic Impressions will be setting the benchmark in Islamic Shopping in the Midlands!
So why Birmingham? Birmingham doesn’t just serve the Midlands but it is also an hours drive away from other cities in Northern England where there is a heavy population of Muslims. When we think of opening outlets in any area we always look at our customer base and what would be most convenient for them. We have had a lot of enquiries and website orders from the Birmingham and West Midlands area, and many of our customers have urged us to open an outlet near to them. It tells us that our customers have a unique taste for our products and there is a strong practicing Muslim community in Birmingham that appreciates Islamic Impressions’ range of products.
Before taking the step to finalise the location we conducted a poll using various social networking tools, both online and offline (like facebook on the web and in exhibitions and other events we have attended in the last few months). As a result the overwhelming response was in favour of Birmingham.
It took us many months to find a suitable property in Birmingham, but we got there in the end. This has been for 2 reasons:
· We wanted a great, highly accessible location.
· We wanted this store to be big in floor space to enable us to stock and display all of our vast range of exciting Islamic products, on a scale not seen before in Birmingham.
By Allah’s help we successfully acquired an entire building on ladypool road which will inshallah be our largest retail store so far with 2500 sq feet of floor space. In the process of setting up our stores we made sure we hired builders and contractors who are local and reputable Muslims who have an appreciation of the service we provide and an understanding of our vision. Competency was a key requirement as there is a lot building work going on that involves significant structural adjustment to create an open plan contemporary feel to the store.
Alhamdulillah being in an ideal location is good that there is a lot going on the area and our shop is located in between 2 Islamic schools. With you duas Insha’Allah we are planning to open 2 weeks prior to Ramadan.

asalaamwa alaikum!!
I not long made hidrah last sep 09 marsha allaah!!
Anyway, I came back for a visit when me & my friend aishah was driving passed your shop on ladypool road..your shop caught my eye & i shouted to my friend “stop”! when we went in i was amazed for the first time an islamic shop so spacious & organised marsha allaah..on top of that your boys hooded thobes are the style iv always wanted..having 6boys you can imagine how many thobes i go threw! but now Alhamdulilah your quality is just what i needed…well done to who ever thought of that design,everyone who has seen my boys in them want one..
your staff was also very helpfull & friendly,& when i saw one member of staff wearing one of your dresses,it looked so nice on i bought one.I think it really help staff modeling your clothes because seeing it hanging didnt catch my eye…keep up the good work insha allaah!!
And yes i will for sure be traveling from egypt & taking a visit to your shop insha Allaah.
