John Lewis is expanding its repair service to all stores except for Swindon and Canary Wharf after a successful pilot program. Customers can drop off items for cleaning, mending, or tailoring starting April 9. The retailer’s collaboration with Johnsons will offer clothing repairs, alterations, dry cleaning, and more. Johnsons will collect and return items to the store in pristine condition, extending the services to household textiles as well. The move aligns with sustainable practices as John Lewis commits to circularity in textile production and consumption. Consumer interest in domestic repairs is growing, with a surge in sales of haberdashery items and John Lewis sewing machines. Research shows that clothing repairs can prevent new purchases, contributing to a more sustainable approach. John Lewis is dedicated to designing items with quality and longevity in mind, supporting the circular economy and their commitment to sustainability.
