Head Entertainment - Head Records

In 2007, prior to the formation of Head Entertainment, Head Records had opened following the closure of the Fopp store in Leamington Spa. Head Records is owned by Indulge Retail Limited, which was previously run by one of the partners of Head Entertainment, Les Whitfield. The firm's logo incorporates a side view of a head.

Head Records subsequently opened three further stores. The Bristol ex-Zavvi store taken up by Head Entertainment closed on 27 March 2010, but was reopened a week later by Head Records under the name "Head CD DVD Books". The store contains some new stock alongside ex-Zavvi stock; the product range includes clothing and a selection of books alongside CDs and DVDs.

The former Zavvi store in Bromley was taken up by Head Records (as "Head CD & DVD"), some months after Head Entertainment had taken on its tranche of ex-Zavvi store sites. The Bromley store subsequently moved from the Zavvi site into another store location (with the former Zavvi site being taken up by New Look), and as with the Bristol store, the Bromley site carries a selection of new-release and catalogue products.

In December 2010, a new Head Records store opened in Belfast's Victoria Square, becoming the fourth store in the chain.

It was reported in the 10 May 2010 Weston Mercury that Head was to open a new store in Weston-super-Mare; this occupied the unit in the Sovereign Shopping Centre, which had been used by HMV as a temporary store over Christmas 2010. Head opened on 14 May 2011. Nick Cooke, centre manager of the Sovereign Shopping Centre, said, "We are delighted that Head have chosen to open in Weston, which for too long has missed a dedicated music retailer."

On Sunday 15th January 2012 Head Records store closed in Belfast's Victoria Square. The Belfast store re-opened for business on Saturday 14th July 2012.
