CLARKS CELEBRATES 200 YEARS WITH NEW STORE
AT THE JUNCTION, ANTRIM

Household footwear brand, Clarks, has today announced it will be opening its latest store at The Junction Retail & Leisure Park in Antrim this spring, creating eight new jobs in the local area.

Taking a 1,923 sq ft unit, the new store is set to open on Wednesday 16 April, offering a wide selection of stylish, comfortable, and high-quality shoes at unbeatable prices, providing a fresh shopping experience for customers in the area.

The new store will join the schemeโ€™s strong roster of clothing and footwear brands, such as Nike, Asics and Skechers, bringing the 20-year-old scheme to 91% occupancy, as it enjoyed its best year ever last year with sales up +13% and footfall +16% on the previous year.

Celebrating itโ€™s 200-year anniversary, Clarks has been at the forefront of innovative shoemaking since its formation in 1825. The new outlet store will feature an extensive collection of menโ€™s, womenโ€™s, and childrenโ€™s footwear, including both classic styles and the latest seasonal designs. Shoppers will find everything from casual sneakers to dress and school shoes, boots, and sandals, with always a minimum 30% off RRP.

โ€œMany of our stores have enjoyed their biggest year since opening at the scheme, and we are confident that the arrival of such a well-loved brand as Clarks will be a fantastic addition to the already strong offering here at The Junction. We are excited to welcome Clarks onboard.โ€

Chris Flynn, Centre Director at The Junction.

โ€œThe Junction continues to go from strength to strength and itโ€™s brilliant to see such a strong interest in the scheme with the announcement of three new tenants in the past month. It really shows a strong retailer confidence due to how well The Junction is performing, holding steady against a nationwide downturn in retail for footfall and sales.โ€
