For the first time in Yorkshire, King Colis, the global sensation turning lost parcels into real-life treasure hunts, is bringing its unique pop-up experience to The Broadway, Bradford from Monday 1 June to Sunday 7 June.
The exclusive one-week King Colis event will give shoppers the chance to purchase more than 10 tonnes of mystery parcels rescued from major e-commerce platforms. Each unopened package could contain anything from everyday gadgets and designer accessories to highly sought-after collectibles, offering an interactive shopping experience while helping to reduce waste by giving undelivered parcels a second life.
Visitors will have 10 minutes to choose their parcels, which are sold by weight at just £2.50 per 100 grams. The contents remain a mystery until after purchase, with previous customers uncovering prizes including valuable gold bars and luxury items from brands such as Rolex and Prada.
Since launching, King Colis pop-ups have attracted more than 1 million visitors across Europe and the UK, combining the excitement of a treasure hunt with a more sustainable approach to retail.
Discussing the Yorkshire launch, Killian Denis, CEO and Co-Founder of King Colis, said: “We are thrilled to bring King Colis to Yorkshire for the very first time. Since launching in the UK, the response has been incredible, and it has been amazing to watch customers experience the excitement of uncovering surprise treasures hidden inside every parcel.
“Every package has a story. Some contain practical everyday items, while others reveal extraordinary finds. We can’t wait to see what treasures shoppers in Bradford discover.”
Founded in 2023, King Colis is a circular economy retailer that rescues undelivered parcels, giving them a second life instead of allowing them to go to waste. To date, the company has saved more than 2,000 tonnes of parcels from destruction.
Ian Ward, General Manager at The Broadway, Bradford said: “We are delighted to host King Colis’ first-ever Yorkshire pop-up and bring this exciting and sustainable shopping experience to Bradford. The launch has generated a great deal of anticipation, and we look forward to seeing what hidden treasures our visitors uncover.”
The pop-up will be situated in front of Next on the main floor and will run between 9am-7pm Monday-Friday and 11am-5pm on Sunday.
Admission is free for all visitors, although fast passes are strongly recommended to avoid queues. Fast passes are available in advance for £15. Minors under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
