In what can be only described as an avalanche of arrivals, The City of London’s new Broadgate Central mall is about to welcome eight new retail businesses this autumn, including some big brands.
Molton Brown
The British Land-operated shopping centre close to Liverpool Street station has announced 16,000 sq ft of retail and dining deals for Broadgate Central. This brings the new retail and leisure space on the ground and lower ground floors of the recently-completed 1 Broadgate to “79% let or under offer, with good interest on the remaining space”, British Land added.
So who’s taking up residence? Health & beauty giant Boots is opening Boots Fragrance, its first-ever fragrance-only boutique; high-end beauty/lifestyle brand Molton Brown is expanding its London presence; heritage menswear brand Moss is also doing the same, while hair removal specialist Strip and established barber Murdock London complete the new arrivals line-up.
They will join a number of high-profile fashion brands already secured for the scheme, including Mango, Luca Faloni, Hobbs and Whistles.
Broadgate Central spans the ground and lower ground floors of 1 Broadgate and 100 Liverpool Street, linking Liverpool Street station to Finsbury Avenue Square with 120,000 sq ft of retail and hospitality space.
Kelly Cleveland, head of Real Estate and Investment at British Land, said: “We’re seeing fantastic leasing momentum across Broadgate, with a diverse mix of retail and leisure brands choosing the campus to grow their presence in central London. These latest lettings build on recent announcements and reflect the enduring appeal of Broadgate’s location, connectivity and curated offer.”
The wider Broadgate complex boasts 289,000 sq ft of retail, hospitality, and leisure space, and the new arrivals join an already strong roster including Tommy Hilfiger, beauty specialist Space NK and jeweller Monica Vinader.
