Denim brand G-Star Raw has agreed terms with shopping centre owner intu to open its latest store at intu Metrocentre as part of the retailer’s plan to expand across the UK by opening further stores. The 2,454-sq ft store opens later this month.
G-Star Raw has signed up for 2,500-sq ft space at intu Lakeside and has an existing store at Manchester Arndale, owned jointly by intu and M&G Real Estate.
Kate Grant, regional managing director, north, for intu, said: “Our flagship destination offers retailers high footfall combined with long dwell time, that’s why we’re seeing more and more retailers like G-Star Raw open their biggest and best stores here and have the confidence to invest in these stores for the long term. For the shopper, intu Metrocentre is a day-out destination where they can eat, shop and be entertained all under one roof.”
