Clarks Village welcomes raft of new brands
The Clarks Village outlet centre near Glastonbury has secured a raft of deals this Spring with new signings across the fashion, beauty, footwear and accessories categories.
The centre has welcomed seven new retailers including Hobbs, Molton Brown, Skechers, Suit Direct, Saltrock, Red 5 and The Beauty Outlet.
The combined total of 14,000 square feet of newly occupied space represents 7% of the overall footprint of the scheme.
Clarks Village said most of the openings were timed to coincide with Easter holiday trading and the centre’s largest TV and outdoor advertising burst to date which has helped to boost sales by 10%.
Chris Davis, Clarks Village retail manager, said: “These new brands have been incredibly well received with all of them beating their opening targets and many being positively referenced in our shoppers’ latest Trip Advisor reviews.
“The trend for occupiers to invest in better quality store environments has continued which continues to drive acceptance of outlet retailing with consistent brand standards.”
