SUPERDRY TO OPEN FIRST NOTTINGHAM STORE AT INTU VICTORIA CENTRE

Retail News

Fashion retailer, Superdry, has signed for its first stand-alone store in Nottingham with a 6,000 sq ft store at intu Victoria Centre.

The news follows the opening of Urban Outfitters at the centre last year and an exciting £40 million refurbishment and remodelling of the centre which is currently underway.

Superdry has signed a 10 year lease for the store, which sits adjacent to John Lewis. The store will open in the summer.

Martin Breeden, Asset Management Director at intu comments:

“There is real momentum in the leasing and good news coming out of Nottingham. We are confident Superdry will trade well here. The city has the fourth largest student population in the UK and the highest proportion of 16 – 24 year olds in any major UK shopping location.”

Alan Pearson, Director of FHP commented:

“Superdry are an excellent addition to the tenant mix following the opening of Urban Outfitters late last year. We have significant interest in the scheme with a number of retailers under offer as part of the redevelopment, which we will be pleased to announce shortly.”

Claire Arksey of Superdry comments:

“We have wanted to open a store in the region for some time. intu Victoria Centre has always been a strong location and with the mall refreshment and with the addition of new fashion brands and catering offer it will get stronger. We now sell in over 100 countries but are always looking to add something fresh and exciting to each new store and are looking forward to revealing our latest product range.”

Work is already underway on the £40 million refurbishment of intu Victoria Centre which will include completely new interiors and entrances and the creation of a new Catering Quarter at the clock tower entrance from Milton Street.
