Footasylum to open first Aberdeen store
Footasylum is to open its first Aberdeen store at the Union Square shopping centre.
Due to launch in early September, the 7,000 square foot space will be located on the ground floor of the scheme in a unit adjacent to Superdry and Superdrug. Its product mix will span menswear, womenswear, juniors and will include products from the likes of of Nike, Adidas and Under Armour, as well as Footasylum’s own brands Monterrain, Zavetti Canada, Dripmade, Alessandro Zavetti and Forena.
The company is currently expanding in the UK. Following the opening of a 20,000 square foot flagship in London’s Oxford Street in September 2023, Footasylum launched upsized stores in Birmingham’s Bullring and the White Rose shopping centre in Leeds. Earlier this month, it opened a 13,000 square foot store in Gateshead’s Metrocentre.
David Pujolar, chief executive of Footasylum, said: “I am hugely excited to be bringing Footasylum to Aberdeen, which is a city with a thriving retail scene and vibrant local community. Union Square shopping centre is the city’s largest retail and leisure destination, and I have no doubt it is the right location for our first-ever Aberdeen store.
“Our aim is for our unique and extensive branded streetwear offering to be widely available across the UK, and stores such as this one will be vital to achieving our ambitions. The new Aberdeen store will offer visitors an incredible shopping experience and help to take the Footasylum brand to the next level. We can’t wait to open our doors later this year.”
