STACK

KPC has invested in STACK, an innovative operator of mixed-use leisure venues renowned for their fusion of bars, live entertainment, and leisure activities offering memorable experiences alongside a high-quality all-day street food offer led by local independent vendors.

Founded by Neill Winch in 2017, STACK has become a cultural and community hub, initially making its mark with the Newcastle site in 2018, which drew over 3 million visitors before its closure in 2022. STACK will launch a new flagship site in Newcastle at Worswick Chambers in 2025, in a revitalization of the historic Grade II listed building, featuring nine bars and ten street food units.

STACK Seaburn, which opened in 2020 despite the pandemic challenges, already attracts over 600,000 visitors annually, showcasing the brand's compelling and resilient proposition.

STACK is poised to spearhead its expansion with STACK Middlesbrough, scheduled to open in spring 2024, the first in a series of site launches, with STACK Lincoln already in the construction phase and St James’ STACK soon to be developed in a joint venture with Newcastle United that will establish a Fan Zone by the stadium, reflecting the brand’s innovative approach to leisure and community engagement.

STACK’s expansion strategy is multifaceted, consisting of container parks in Carlisle, Manchester, and Sheffield together with several development projects aimed at repurposing vacant retail spaces, breathing new life into city centres in locations such as Lincoln, Durham, Bishop Auckland, Whitley Bay and Northampton. This dual approach underscores STACK’s commitment to creating both pioneering leisure environments and revitalising urban landscapes.

KPC's investment will be used to accelerate STACK's growth and realise the team’s vision of delivering these transformative projects.
