Jack Wills signs up to Cribbs Causeway
Fashion and lifestyle brand Jack Wills is to open a new store at The Mall at Cribbs Causeway on the outskirts of Bristol.
The retailer will take a 4,000 sq ft store at the shopping centre as it looks to expand its presence within the UK’s main retail locations.
Jack Wills chief executive Wendy Becker said: “We are pleased to have agreed a lease for a permanent store at The Mall at Cribbs Causeway. This is in line with our strategy of ensuring that Jack Wills has the right mix of stores in the UK’s premier retail locations, supported by our growing online offer.”
Other brands to sign up to new stores at the centre include Pret a Manger and Office with the latter taking a 5,000 sq ft unit. In addition, Next has recently secured a 20,000 sq ft unit for its “Home and Garden” offer at Cribbs Causeway’s retail park which will supplement its existing Next fashion store at the shopping centre.
Julie Lawrence, director for asset management and leasing at M&G Real Estate, said: “Cribbs Causeway remains a key requirement for brands seeking to trade in the right strategic locations nationally in order to reach the maximum catchment. Positioned at the junction of the M4 and M5, Cribbs Causeway continues to attract national and international retailers and operators that recognise the value of a primary regional location.”
