Edinburgh Woollen Mill (EWM) is a Carlisle-based retailer specialising in clothing, along with interests in homewares and destination shopping for tourists. It was previously owned by the Dubai-based British billionaire Philip Day.[2][3][4]
The company's core Edinburgh Woollen Mill stores have traditionally targeted men and women over the age of 40,[5] but the business has expanded into new markets in recent years, most notably through the acquisition of value fashion retailer Peacocks in 2012.
In May 2018, Edinburgh Woollen Mill announced plans to move their HQ from Langholm to Carlisle.[6][7]
