Decathlon Brighton:

 

Brighton, a vibrant seaside resort in East Sussex, is located just 47 miles south of London, with London less than an hour away by train. Famous for its lively atmosphere and stunning coastline, Brighton has been a favourite holiday destination for Londoners and visitors from afar for many years. It’s also home to the world’s oldest aquarium, which has been delighting visitors since it opened in 1872.

 

Our Brighton store, situated on the bustling High Street right in the heart of the city and close to the train station, spans 1,400 sqm over three floors. With a projected annual turnover of £3.5M, it serves as an integral part of the local community and a hub for both residents and tourists alike.

 

The store thrives thanks to our dedicated team of 16 passionate teammates, including two department managers and a manager-in-training.

 

Together, they uphold our commitment to exceptional service, bringing the Decathlon experience to life in one of the UK's most iconic seaside cities.
