Following the opening of Japanese restaurant Osaka and a 3,900 sq ft branch of Natwest in January, the mall’s owner has revealed that two more brands are due to open at the centre later this year.
Adding to the list of brands that are due to open in the centre later this year, Skechers, the global footwear powerhouse will add a 3,200 sq ft store at The Oracle to its portfolio of UK locations. The list of newcomers includes global footwear powerhouse Skechers, which will add a 3,200 sq ft store at The Oracle to its portfolio of UK locations. The shoe brand, best known for its athletic forms and casual lines, will be joined by fast food chain Leon.
Hammerson stated that it was this mix of leisure operators and established fashion names that’s building The Oracle into a shopping destination where consumers can satisfy their appetite for experiences.
Iain Mitchell, UK commercial director at Hammerson, said: “These lettings really highlight the Oracle’s appeal to both consumers and brands, and demonstrate its position as a leading retail and leisure destination. We know that more and more consumers are looking for an experience when they visit our destinations, combining shopping with a meal or a leisure activity. That’s why we are targeting engaging F&B brands like Osaka and Leon, and outstanding fashion brands like Skechers. This is just the start for the Oracle; we have a lot more planned for 2020.”
