In Marseille, the Ouimum's concept store is a living space with a restaurant area, courses for adults and children and a shop area. Furniture, decoration, toys... A wide choice of products that will delight families or future parents.
Notice to mothers and future mothers. For ten years now, a cocoon specially dedicated to them has taken place just a stone's throw from the Rond-Point du Prado. Ouimum's presents itself as a concept store where many references of accessories of all kinds are to be unearthed.
In view of the services provided on site, it would be closer to a place of life where women can meet to share moments alongside their pitchounes. Catering area, workshops, games room… On the shop side, stuffed animals, clothes and other furniture should satisfy more than one as Mother's Day approaches, for personal reasons or for the pleasure of giving.
The Ouimum's team
The return to life
At 50 boulevard Édouard Herriot this Tuesday afternoon, it's time for storage, reorganization of space and new arrivals. A commotion that was necessary before the lifting of government restrictions, today allowing the team to welcome its customers on the terrace for the lunch break or for coffee. "We are lucky to have this outdoor space so we can keep in touch with people who want to land with us," says Marion Guez, founder and manager of the brand. In usual times, we have a dining room where we offer seasonal, local products, in partnership with Marseille structures, such as Maison Geney, for example, which prepares gluten-free pastries for us.
Once again, there are also activities for young and old, such as relaxation workshops, massages, yoga for mums or dance and theater classes for the little ones. “We keep our sessions by adapting the gauges, this is done in a small committee to respect the distances. Our teams are made up of professionals, such as midwives and sports coaches for our sports formula, osteopaths and masseuses for the well-being part”.
From an early age, children can also attend specific activities, whether it is a parent-baby workshop, a massage (from 6 years old) or lessons in the mini-club.
About forty references in store
In this concept store of more than 300 m2, the rooms are filled with decorative objects, accessories and all useful material in the life of parents and their children. A small family cave of Ali Baba where some forty brands are referenced.
Pastel colors, neutral and refined tones, Ouimum's plays on the latest trends and selects products for the quality they have to offer customers. "Our store is considered 'essential', people needed to come and pick up items, especially clothes for the little ones who grow up quickly, continues Marion. For my part, I pay attention to the materials when I choose brands. We are also taking an eco-responsible turn because the brands are doing it themselves, while guaranteeing quality. There is made in France, other foreign products and also a small local range”.
Organization of birthdays, birth lists, birth gifts… All of Ouimum's services can be found on the site. And to celebrate the store's 8th anniversary, but also on the occasion of Mother's Day, a contest is organized on social networks.
