CBRE Investment Management (CBRE IM), the property landlord, has announced the inauguration of JD Sports’ new 4,453-square-foot regional flagship store at the Ashley Centre in Epsom. Situated on the ground floor close to the central square.
The store features an extensive selection of clothing, footwear, and accessories, including exclusive products. Shoppers can expect to find items from top brands such as Nike, adidas, The North Face, and Puma. The new location signifies JD Sports’ continued expansion and commitment to providing a diverse range of products to consumers.
Louisa Butters, Head of Retail Asset Management UK at CBRE Investment Management, commented: “The unveiling of JD is reflective of our commitment to the refurbishment plans for the scheme and is a significant regional launch for the Ashley Centre. This new flagship store is just one of a number of new openings we have welcomed in the past six months, especially targeted to enhance the customer experience and is part of our ongoing strategy for the destination.”
James Air, Head of Group Acquisitions at JD, added: “JD is pleased to have opened a new store in the heart of The Ashley Centre. It was great to work with Duncan Kite and CBRE IM to make this happen and we are confident this will be a fantastic new store for the community.”
CBRE Investment Management is currently completing a £5 million refurbishment programme to revitalise the scheme in Epsom and the expansion of the retail offer, led by JD, is a key milestone for the project, due to be completed by the end of the year.
JD joins another recent entrant to the Ashley Centre, GAIL’s Bakery, providing visitors with a wider choice of high-profile brand names within its retail offer alongside Deichmann, Monsoon and NEXT.
