The owners of Bon Accord Centre Aberdeen have announced a new addition to the existing tenant line up of the City Centre scheme that has been at the heart of retail in the Granite City for more than 45 years. Following the arrival of Danish retail chain Sostrene Grene lifestyle retailer Fat Face secured space in April this year bringing their casual clothing, footwear and accessories offer to the scheme already anchored by Next, Boots, New Look and Waterstones.
News has broken that contemporary clothing retailer Superdry is to move into a 6000 sq.ft store in the Centre.
Rosie Taylor, Superdry Head of Stores, UK & Ireland commented “Superdry is delighted to be returning to Aberdeen. Our new premium SD Co. By Superdry store concept has been thoughtfully designed to bring an elevated shopping experience to the city. We can’t wait to welcome both loyal customers and new fans to explore our brand, in a space that truly reflects our signature preppy aesthetic and quality-driven collections.”
Letting agent Richard Noble, Director at FG Burnett added “Bon Accord remains very much on the radar of retailers illustrated by the recent raft of new entrants. What’s really encouraging is that we also have existing occupiers showing confidence in the location by renewing leases and then completing new shop fits which really freshens up the mall. Whether a new entrant to the city or completing a relocation the existing depth of occupiers makes Bon Accord a compelling option. We are delighted to welcome Superdry.”
Joint agent Kevin Sims of Sims Property Consultants commented on these latest developments “Sostrene Grene choosing Bon Accord for their Aberdeen store reflected the strength of the scheme, the lettings to fashion retailers Fat Face and now Superdry highlight the terrific location, car parking and tenant mix. I am pleased to report that discussions continue with further retailers looking to secure space in the development.”
