British Land, joint owner of Meadowhall in Sheffield has secured over 21,000sq ft of new lettings and upsizes in the last three months.
The news comes as the first phase of Meadowhall’s £60m refurbishment nears completion.
Key highlights in the recent lettings activity include the signing of Ghost London, Nespresso, Hawes & Curtis, upsizes by JD Sports and Virgin Holidays, the return of The Entertainer, and the debut of two coffee brands: Nespresso and Coffika, a coffee concept, which will be making its UK debut with a 900sq ft café on the scheme’s Arcade.
Pret A Manger is also launching a new 2,300sq ft café, its first at Meadowhall.
Completing the additions is a hat-trick of openings in the Oasis Dining Quarter, with Barburrito, Wrapchic and Subway all making Meadowhall debuts. In addition, Australian tea specialist, T2 has recently opened at the centre.
Richard Crowther, asset manager for British Land, said: “As we continue to increase Meadowhall’s choice and variety, the mass of new signings is testament to our status as the number one shopping destination in the region. Securing brands for their regional debuts further strengthens our offering, whilst Meadowhall’s strong performance is also reflected by a growing trend amongst existing retailers to upsize. Combined, the new and improved retailers and catering brands make Meadowhall even more appealing to visitors from across the region.”
