Chains and independents

Of the 11,100 clothing stores we hold, 7,409 (67%) carry a chain or brand name in our source. The most common are PEP Cell (827), Ackermans (601), Rage (506), Jet (397) and Truworths (359). The other 33% are independent businesses or entries without a brand tag. Brand tags come from the open dataset and are not always complete, so a branch of a chain can appear without one.

What to check before choosing

• Phone ahead to confirm the business is still trading at the listed address. Our data comes from an open mapping dataset and can be out of date.
• Ask about prices, availability and opening times directly. NearMe does not publish prices or opening hours.
