Orchid Developments Group Ltd, the Bulgarian focused property
developer and investor, today announces that H & M, Hennes
& Mauritz AB (H&M), the international fashion retailer has
opened their flagship store at the Group's landmark retail
development in Varna, the Grand Mall.
As announced in October 2011, the fashion retailer signed an
agreement to take over 2,200 sqm across two levels of the Grand
Mall for a full concept store, as part of H&M's international
expansion plans.
This leasing represents 4.5% of the total net lease area of the
Grand Mall and brings the current leased area to approximately
81.9% (40,660 sqm) , of which 81.4% is occupied and a further 0.5%
is anticipated to be occupied by the end of the first half of 2012.
This brings the total number of open shops to 131 units. The
H&M flagship store sits alongside international brands already
established at Grand Mall Varna, which include Bershka, Carrefour,
Mango, Nike and Zara.
Guy Meyohas, Chief Executive Officer of Orchid, said: "We are
delighted that H&M flagship store in the Grand Mall Varna has
opened. Grand Mall Varna has become one of the leading malls in the
City of Varna with 131 leased units occupying more than 80% of its
lettable area. With a further 4.5% of lettable space currently
under negotiation, we hope to build on this strong presence of high
quality brands over the course of 2012."
