Ted Baker, Søstrene Grene and 200 Degrees have been announced as the latest brands to sign up at Derbion, the East Midlands’ leading retail and leisure destination, following a string of recent lettings including Jack Wills, River Studios, Frasers and Boux Avenue.
Iconic fashion brand, Ted Baker, has signed a lease on a 2,960 sq. ft store, which will feature a range of collections from across womenswear, menswear, footwear and accessories. The new Ted Baker store at Derbion will add to the much-loved lifestyle brand’s strong international portfolio which spans across the UK, USA, Europe, Middle East and Asia.
The brand is the latest fashion retailer to secure a lease at Derbion, following a raft of lettings including Tommy Hilfiger, Mango, FLANNELS, Jack Wills and the first concept store for River Studios. Frasers will open its 127,000 sq multi-brand flagship store at Derbion in November, spanning three floors, and luxury lingerie brand, Boux Avenue, will open before Christmas.
Occupying over 6,000 sq ft of floorspace, Søstrene Grene will offer a wide range of stylish and affordable furniture items and home accessories, as it continues its UK expansion at Derbion. Set to open later this autumn, the Scandinavian brand will join the centre’s growing portfolio of home and interior retailers, including H&M Home which will arrive later this year as the retailer doubles its footprint at Derbion to 25,000 sq ft.
Independently owned coffee roasters, 200 Degrees, have signed a lease for a 1,585 sq ft coffee shop, which will serve handcrafted coffee by a team of highly skilled baristas.
Supporting the continued growth of its food and beverage offer, Derbion has announced a £2 million investment into the refurbishment of its food court. Seating capacity will be increased to meet growing demand and the centre will welcome a number of new brands, including famed American fried chicken restaurant, Popeyes® Louisiana Kitchen.
Michael Boundy, senior asset manager at Derbion, commented: “Our leasing momentum has continued to gather pace this year with a string of major lettings alongside some significant upsizes and store refurbishments.
“We’re proud to be announcing the arrival of Ted Baker, Søstrene Grene and 200 Degrees as we broaden our offer across retail, home and food and beverage, and we continue to drive forward our investment across the centre to ensure it remains the most attractive proposition for leading brands and our customers.”
