Three growing brands sign at Cribbs Mall

Bristol’s Cribbs Mall has secured new lettings with three growing retailers, which are set to take a total of 2,340 sq ft of space between them.

Sportswear manufacturer Castore, jeweller Austen & Blake, and make-up specialist KIKO Milano are set to take 573 sq ft, 967 sq ft, and 800 sq ft units respectively.

Founded in 2015 in Manchester, Castore supplies a number of leading sports teams including the England Cricket Team and the Red Bull and McLaren Formula One teams. The brand is also the kit manufacturer for football teams including the Republic of Ireland, Rangers, Bayer Leverkusen, and Everton.

Austen & Blake – also from Manchester – opened its first location in 2018 and now has over 15 jewellery stores across the UK. Offering a range of custom-made jewellery, it joins the likes of Beaverbrooks, Clogau, Ernest Jones, and Goldsmiths at Cribbs Mall.

Finally, cosmetics specialist KIKO Milano is set to bring its range of professional make-up and skincare treatments, as the brand opens its first store in Bristol.

Scott Linard, portfolio director at M&G Real Estate, said: “These new arrivals enhance Cribbs Mall’s reputation as a hub for leading fashion, beauty, and jewellery brands in the West Country and will give our shoppers even more choice when visiting the centre. The centre has always been a great supporter in the development of innovative businesses over the years thanks to our strong customer base who are always keen to see exciting new names at Cribbs Mall, as well as our flexible units which allow occupiers to adapt their spaces according to their specific needs. We therefore look forward to continuing to grow our occupier mix to ensure we remain the leading shopping destination in the region.”
