A Dundee record store has been named one of the best in the world according to a new list released by the Financial Times.
Assai Records received the coveted title in their new feature which looked at some of the best record stores around the globe including ones in Paris, New York and Copenhagen.
Writing about the store, FT said:
Its founder having caught the revival and built a business selling vinyl online, Assai opened its first physical shop in a Dundee suburb in 2015 then moved into the city centre four years later. In-store performances by local bands and hard-to-find pressings, including an exclusive range with Japanese-style “obi” paper strips, have helped build its reputation as a tastemaker as well as a community hub.
Responding to the accolade, Assai took to their Facebook page and said that they were excited and thankful to those visiting their store.
Assai Records is located on Union Street.
