Manchester Arndale has further enhanced its beauty offering after agreeing a ten-year lease with leading UK retailer Space NK on a 3,313sq ft space on New Cannon Street.
Offering a range of products, including skincare, cosmetics and gadgets, Space NK stocks over 130 brands such as Drunk Elephant, Nars, Charlotte Tilbury and Diptyque, alongside a host of exclusive products such as Boy Smells and Rose Inc.
Space NK’s arrival comes as Manchester Arndale secured new lease agreements with fellow leading brands Timberland and Jack & Jones, who have signed new five-year terms for their respective units. The new letting to Space NK and increased commitment by Timberland and Jack & Jones follows the arrival of several international brands over the past 12 months including Nike, Moss, Manchester City, Dune, Clarks, Sunglass Hut and French Connection.
Manchester Arndale’s place as the home of big name brands in the city centre has helped see footfall grow by 6.3 per cent with over 46 million people visiting Manchester Arndale and New Cathedral Street during 2023, as occupancy grew to over 95 per cent.
Asset managers Global Mutual and M&G are now in talks with several retailers over the remaining space at Manchester Arndale, as they look to ensure it continues to offer a diverse range of retail, leisure and eateries to help attract visitors from the North West and beyond.
