Stephen McCall, CEO of edyn, said: “After demonstrating the resilience and adaptability of our business model throughout the pandemic, we’re excited to share further details of our Locke openings in 2021, which promises to be an exceptional year of growth for the brand across Europe. As international business and leisure travel reawakens, we are seeing new trends, tastes and priorities emerging.
