Ecully Grand Ouest

Écully Grand Ouest is a regional shopping centre in Écully, in the Rhône, on the western axis of the Lyon metropolitan area approximately 7 kilometres from central Lyon. Écully is one of Lyon’s established western residential suburbs, with a long association with higher education and executive housing. Carrefour anchors the grocery component. The scheme serves the upscale residential catchment of Écully, Champagne-au-Mont-d’Or and the western Lyon communes.

Zara covers fashion. Sephora covers beauty alongside Nocibé. Decathlon handles sportswear. IKKS Women covers contemporary fashion. Maisons du Monde covers home. Pandora and Marc Orian cover jewellery. Petit Bateau covers children’s fashion. Librairie Decitre holds a books and culture position — the Lyon-based bookshop chain with strong roots in the city’s intellectual and academic culture. Palais des Thés covers specialty tea. Voisin — the Lyon chocolatier founded in 1897, known for the iconic pink praline confection — holds a regional food position.

The centre is accessible by road from the A6 motorway and the western Lyon ring road. Public transport connections from the TCL network link the scheme to central Lyon. The western Lyon axis is one of the most prosperous residential corridors in the metropolitan area, with above-average household income and purchasing power relative to the Lyon average.

Palais des Thés, Librairie Decitre and Voisin collectively signal a consumer profile with above-average interest in food culture, reading and quality lifestyle products. The Decitre position is notably locally resonant: the brand was founded in Lyon in 1921 and remains one of France’s strongest independent bookshop chains, with a strong association with Lyon’s reputation as France’s gastronomic capital and its literary culture.
