Griffin celebrates its 20th anniversary with a first take on retail-- a Griffon Store located in London's Westfield, Stratford City, across the Olympic Stadium.
The double fronted store covers 139 square metres and features a 9m glass storefront. Various sections allow customers to test out Griffin products, from mobile device chargers to Crayola-branded products and in-car accessories.
An interactive play area features HELO TC remote controlled helicopters and a showcase for the Griffin iDevice case range, where customers can drop an iPad (in a Griffin case) down a 4m "Drop Zone."
The Griffen Business Solution range also finds use across the store.
