Local retailer launches on Nordstrom website

Stationery retailer, Kikki.K, has launched online at Nordstrom.com and in 19 Nordstrom stores across the United States.

This expands the brand’s already significant global footprint, with an online store selling into 140 countries and 90 physical stores in Australia, the UK, Singapore, New Zealand, and Hong Kong.

The retailer also has a presence in several premium department stores in the UK, including Selfridges, Harrods, John Lewis and Fortnum & Mason.

The partnership with the US-based department store, however, fulfils a long-held dream of founder Kristina Karlsson.

“I’ve dreamt of seeing kikki.K products in the lives of people right across the USA since the very beginning.

“We made that dream a reality with our online store, and now I’m so excited to be introducing our brand to even more of the USA with our launch at Nordstrom,” said Karlsson, who will meet customers in-store this month.

The fact that the department store was created by Swedish immigrant, John. W. Nordstrom in 1901, makes it an especially good fit for the stationery brand, which embodies Swedish design.

As of this month, Nordstrom will stock products from Kikki.K’s Inspiration Collection, Life Essentials Collection and Mid Year Dated Collection online and in-store.
