Manchester Arndale expands beauty offering with signing of Space NK

Manchester Arndale is expanding its beauty offering with the addition of a Space NK store.

Stocking a range of skincare products, cosmetics and gadgets, the 3,313 square foot shop will offer over 130 brands such as Drunk Elephant, Nars, Charlotte Tilbury and Diptyque, alongside exclusive products such as Boy Smells and Rose Inc.

The new letting follows the arrival of several international brands over the past 12 months at Manchester Arndale, including Nike, Moss, Manchester City, Dune, Clarks, Sunglass Hut, and French Connection.

In addition, Timberland and Jack & Jones have signed new five-year terms for their respective units.

Steve Gray, head of European retail asset management at Global Mutual, said: “Space NK is a great addition to Manchester Arndale and further enhances our beauty range, making us the go-to place in the North West for all the best cosmetic brands.

“It is also great to see both Timberland and Jack & Jones renew their commitment to Manchester Arndale as they are both great footfall drivers for the centre and strengthen our fashion offering. 2023 was a great year for the centre, and with this latest news we look forward to an even better 2024 as we welcome further new occupiers over the next few months.”

The shopping centre saw its footfall grow by 6.3% in 2023, with over 46 million people visiting Manchester Arndale and New Cathedral Street.
