Richard’s Story
Pall Mall Barbers CEO Richard Marshall has been in the male business since 1988 where, aged 12, he was tasked with sweeping the barbershop floor as the barber’s assistant. Richard’s over 30 years of experience working from the shop floor up to CEO has given him a unique perspective on how to deliver a flawless male grooming experience which his various industry awards have
- validated. Richard has always been
passionate about male grooming and believes in the transformational qualities that sharp styling has on a gentleman’s persona, presence and success in life. Richard acquired Pall Mall Barbers in 2006 operating from the original 1896 site of Pall Mall Barbers where Richard was the only member of staff. Today, Pall Mall Barbers has eight branches across UK & one branch in NYC, with
- ver 50 staff members (but it feels more
like a big family!).
2018- 2019’s Growth
Pall Mall Barbers has grown from five to eight locations worldwide in the past 12
- months. True to the vision, Pall Mall
Barbers are now in landmark locations in London’s Kings Cross, Paddington as well as New York’s Manhattan and Birmingham branch which is located at the luxury Shopping Central, Mailbox in central Birmingham.
Making a new category
- f retail
Breaking from the conventional barbershop locations being based in residential areas, Pall Mall Barbers are based in professional hubs and campuses in London and New York next to the HQs
- f MasterCard, Facebook, Google, and
- Visa. This has created a new category of
convenience grooming – ensuring quick access to quality gentleman’s grooming.
New York
2 ½ years in the making, Pall Mall Barber has launched in New York’s Rockefeller Centre. Richard’s dream has come true after being inspired by the New York skyline as a child. Richard looked towards the US as his next source of growth. Walking the Manhattan streets and noticing the busy shoeshine store with an empty store next to it in the Rockefeller Centre was the start of Richard’s American adventure.
Monopoly
Richard’s vision is to have Pall Mall Barbers in key locations on the Monopoly boards of key locations worldwide, bringing gentleman’s grooming to landmark locations worldwide

A barber led company
We were founded by barbers over 120 years ago and continue to be run by barbers
- today. From the accountancy team to front
- f house, all of us have been barbers at one
time or another.
Modern outlook, rich heritage
Richard discovered the rich history of Pall Mall Barbers whilst renovating the Trafalgar store. An
- ld business card allowed him to trace the
business all the way back to 1896 when it was
- wned by Mr C. Rose and called “Pall Mall
Toilet Saloon”. We have maintained many of the traditions of the original barbershop, but we now practice a more modern approach to hairstyling, haircare, shaving, beard and skincare!
Whenever I’m in the shop, I will always sweep the floor because it comes second nature to me; it’s in my blood. It’s very much a hands-on team and philosophy for the group and that’s what our customers tell us they like and enjoy when they visit us time and time again. Richard Marshall Founder of Pall Mall Barbers
OUR HISTORY 8 Branches | 50 Staff | 63k Haircuts PA | Full Services | Grooming Products
To international award winner
We have grown significantly since that first store and have just opened our 7th branch in New York City this year, with plans for a rapid expansion with 4 new stores opening every year.
From an ambitious dream
When Richard first took the lease on the Trafalgar store, it was in a sorry state. dilapidated and in serious need of renovation. After a lot of long, hard days pulling plaster from the walls and completely re-fitting the store, he opened the first branch in 2005.

OUR HERITAGE
Inspired by private members clubs
We are inspired by private members clubs and offer modern gentlemen a home away from home where they can unwind in a social, friendly environment.
Originating from the social heart of London
The Pall Mall Game was a lawn game popular in England in the 16th and 17th
- centuries. It was originally played in the
mall, hence the name, and is seen as a precursor to croquet. The objective was simple – strike a ball with a wooden mallet down the mall and through a hoop in the fewest number of hits.

Our dedication to perfection and attention to detail has been recognised with multiple style and grooming awards, as well as thousands of loyal customers.

THE IMMERSIVE DISRUPTIVE EXPERIENCE
Digital platforms may have taken over many real-world experiences, but a computer can’t recreate the feel of a hot shave or fantastic haircut. Giving customers a physical experience is something that they will take away with them and something that will last for long time after. This only helps to cement the value of your event.

EVENTS HISTORY
Pall Mall Barbers popups were the brain child of General Manager Dan who grew up in the market town of Malton Mowbray. Inspired by the hustle and bustle of the market stalls, Dan saw the
- pportunity to make a popup store for barbering.
Taking it beyond a dream, Dan worked with a carpenter to sketch out specifications for a popup which he presented to Pall Mall Barber’s Founder Richard who saw the potential and decided to invest in making a custom-built popup barbering. PMB’s first major event was the London Coffee Festival in 2012, where we caught the eye of BMW, who asked us to run a stand at one of their
- launches. After that it just snowballed; we’ve
worked with Google, Jack Daniels and MasterCard, we’ve done events around the world, and have already got bookings as far forward as 2019 for the Rugby World Cup!

THE STORY SO FAR We cater to a diverse set of requirements from business to personal, B2B and B2C
Corporate events
We’ve previously worked with high-profile companies such as Google and Facebook delivering popup salons in their offices. Working with corporate teams, we put together an event that meets their exact
- needs. Attendees can book their
appointments in advance and receive a multisensory experience that they can take away.
B2B events
Working alongside B2B event organisers, we construct and deliver a tailored and fully integrated event solution which adds buzz and engagement on the day and acts as a social hub of the event.
Co-branded promotions
We collaborated with Oliver Sweeny to launch their new collection. We showcase how the brand and products fit in with the lifestyle and values of a gentleman alongside other brands. We frequently run product placement and promotions in our stores to drive sales for third party brands. Our campaign with The London Sock Exchange had all of our barbers wearing their distinct socks in store.
High profile events
We’ve worked at a number of celebrity weddings to make sure all the men look incredible for the big day. We were invited by the WWE to sharpen the image of their athletes with highly specified haircuts and shaves. These image reworks were done in collaboration with the image rights agents of the athletes and fed directly into the merchandising lines of the athletes which are a core revenue driver for the WWE business.
Consumer Events
We’ve worked at a large number of B2C events, providing services to customers at events and in public. There is always a high demand for our services with queues sometimes getting as long as 25 people. Events we’ve worked at include the Champions League Final and the Virgin London Marathon.

EVENTS We like to go the extra mile and make sure that our clients get exactly what they need.
As part of their Christmas promotional campaign in 2017, we supported H&M with the Pall Mall Barbers popup where we provided barber services
- ver an 8 week campaign
period which was hosted at The Truman Brewery. We launched Hugo Boss’ new fragrance alongside
- GQ. Customers experienced
a multisensory, full male grooming experience sampling the fragrance rather than the normal
- sample. We showed not only
the fragrance, but the lifestyle around it. We worked with MasterCard to provide 4000 haircuts in the main square in Cardiff over three days. Fans could either choose ‘Madness’ having portraits and flags sculpted into their hair for a chance to win tickets to the final, or ‘Priceless’ an unforgettable PMB-quality experience with all the fanfare
- f the football. We featured
celebrity appearances from David James and Ryan Giggs and a Barbershop quartet. MasterCard won an award for the popup initiative at The Pro Awards in 2017 and were also shortlisted for an award at the Sports Business Awards. We have worked with Retail Week Live, Shoptalk and Money 2020 to deliver popups into their B2B events. Our popup acts as a networking hub where customers engage with each other and breaks up the event by adding a social dynamic into a business event which drives social media engagement and buzz. Event organisers sponsor the popup and delegates are able to receive a service of their choosing which makes the event stand out and be the most memorable B2B event of the year for delegates.

PRODUCT HERITAGE
- 1. Idea (2009)
PMB was historically “The Pall Mall Toilet Saloon” with a range of it’s own male grooming products. Frustrated at the experience of using other brand’s products that were not matching the standard required by PMB’s team, the idea was born for PMB to return to it’s roots and relaunch it’s male grooming range.
- 2. Development (2010)
We developed a series of unique step-by-step processes for delivering all male grooming services, based on our years of international experience and research. Our unique systems helped identify define the products that were needed to deliver superior services to our customers.
- 3. Formulation (2012)
After extensive research, we identified the market leading manufacturer and were painstakingly detailed in working together with formulation teams to ensure that the exact product vision became a reality.
- 4. Launch (2014)
The products had their debut in PMB stores and were met by industry awards and rave reviews from customers and barbers who were key collaborators in the product development process.
- 5. Integration (2014)
Because the products were engineered specifically to complement the techniques and grooming services that were uniquely available in PMB stores, they became an intrinsic part of the PMB store experience from day one and form a key part of the customer experience today.
- 6. Globalisation (2015)
In response to the request from many loyal customers, we made our products available
- nline. Interest from overseas markets
quickly followed and PMB is now available in 9 markets worldwide including the US, Singapore and Denmark.
