GLOBAL CITIES RETAIL GUIDE LYON Key Retail Areas & Streets RUE DE LA REPUBLIQUE Formerly known as “Rue Impériale”, Rue de la République is Lyon’s premier retail thoroughfare. Linking Place Bellecour to Lyon City Hall, Rue de la République is home to numerous internationally recognized mass-market retailers in a wide range of retail sectors. The section between Place Bellecour and Place des Cordeliers is a pedestrian zone accommodating numerous anchor stores (Printemps department store, H&M, Pathé cinema, etc.) and is also the section commanding the highest rental values. The section between Place des Cordeliers and Lyon City Hall is half-pedestrianised and is far less busy, with services and food retailers accounting for a signicant share of activity. RUE DU PRESIDENT EDOUARD HERRIOT Parallel to rue de la République, Rue du Président Edouard Herriot hosts 170 retail premises between Place Bellecour to Place des Terreaux. Mainly targeting upper class consumers, the section linking Place Bellecour to Place des Jacobins is home to middle-range to luxury retailers in the fashion, jewellery and luggage sectors including Cartier, Hermès, Dior, Escada or Louis Vuitton. The section between Place des Jacobins and Place des Terreaux is less up-market and yet saw the recent arrival of several trendy fashion retailers including Repetto.
