Boxpark founder Roger Wade is planning to add 14 retail sites across the UK, including in Birmingham, Cardiff, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester and Sheffield. Boxpark's shipping container shops were originally intended as a temporary outlet for independent fashion brands, however, after they were pressured by their high street retail stockists not to do deals with Boxpark, Wade shifted his focus to offering food and drink, cashing in on the new popularity of street food.
