Northern Ireland's Rushmere Shopping Centre in Craigavon has announced that River Island will be upsizing its store to create a new 9,000 square foot unit.
Senior press officer at River Island, Holly Fulco said: “A location such as Rushmere, with continual high footfall and strong demand for our brand, makes it the perfect place to grow our presence and deliver a comprehensive in-store offer. We are also boosted by the great brands alongside us as part of the retail line-up at Rushmere and its reputation as a leading regional shopping destination.”
The extension comes after a strong year of retail investment for Rushmere during which Next unveiled a major store refurbishment and Topshop and H&M also updated their stores.
Criona Collins of Lambert Smith Hampton said: “We are delighted that River Island and all our fashion brands are continuing to trade strongly, innovate, and invest in their space so that they can ensure that today’s modern consumer can shop seamlessly across stores, online, their mobiles and tablets.
“At Rushmere, we know that innovation and experience is the key to long term success and that responding to the ever-changing needs and desires of our customers is vital.”
