Bring a little destination-store nostalgia to your desk with this Virgin Megastores Foldable Mobile Phone Display Stand. The brand grew from a record-retail venture founded in 1976, and its first Megastore opened near Marble Arch in 1979. As the chain expanded across continents, its shops became a recognizable place to browse music and broader entertainment. This practical display stand celebrates that memorable retail era and suits collectors who remember the excitement of finding something new in store.
Virgin Megastores grew from a record-retail venture founded by Richard Branson in early 1976, following his and Nik Powell’s Notting Hill Gate shop, Virgin Records and Tapes. The first Megastore opened in London in 1979, at the end of Oxford Street near Marble Arch. Virgin Megastores and Virgin Records operated as separate businesses. Under Ian Duffell and, later, Simon Wright, the chain expanded through the 1980s and 1990s to more than 100 UK stores and locations across several continents. In 1992, the Virgin Group and Blockbuster formed a US joint venture; other markets also operated through local owners, licenses and partners. By 2001, worldwide stores were divided between the Virgin Group and Lagardère Group. In 2007, the UK and Irish business separated from Virgin and its stores were rebranded Zavvi; after Zavvi entered administration in 2008, its stores closed or were sold. The US chain announced closures in 2009, while Australian stores closed by 2010. Japan’s stores were acquired by Culture Convenience Club and rebranded Tsutaya by 2009. After extensive international exits, the business was operating only in the Middle East and North Africa by 2015.
