Swindon Designer Outlet

Swindon Designer Outlet (currently trading as Frasers Plus Designer Outlet Swindon[1]) is a covered designer outlet in Swindon, England, owned and operated by Frasers Group.

The outlet occupies most of the remainder of the Great Western railway works. Converted by Tarmac Construction and opened in March 1997,[2][3] it is a few miles from junction 16 of the M4 motorway.[3]

In December 2025, LaSalle Investment Management sold the outlet to Frasers Group.[4][5] It was also previously owned by Nuveen Real Estate from 2008 to 2022.[6]

McArthurGlen Group operated the outlet from opening to January 31, 2026, when the centre's operations were handed to Frasers Group and rebranded under the Frasers Plus brand, the centre is since managed and operated by Savills.[7][8][9]

The centre attracts more than 3 million customers annually, putting it in the top 5 outlets in the UK. [10][11]
