City Centre Bahrain, operated by Majid Al Futtaim, has announced the leasing of 9,000 square metres of retail space to add more than 60 brands to its portfolio.
This move is hoped to increase the mall’s total occupancy rate by 18 per cent within this year, with fashion brands commanding the highest retail space followed by personal care and lifestyle brands.
Mall director at City Centre Bahrain, Duaij Al Rumaihi, said: “At City Centre Bahrain, we strive to entertain our visitors with unique, best-in-class shopping and experiential concepts that set retail benchmarks and house many first-time retailers in the Kingdom.”
The new retail line-up includes international fashion & sportswear brands like Urban Outfitters, Lefties, Decathlon and some of the upcoming brands such as Machaka, New Era and Jashnamal Department Store.
Such key additions serve to cater to customer preferences while enhancing their experiences in line with the findings of the Big Vote campaign that was launched in May.
City Centre Bahrain has also witnessed an increase in homegrown brands to more than 15 per cent.
“It is also a testament to the solid tenant partnership with our existing retailers, prioritising their needs in line with evolving customer shopping patterns while we continue to diversify and elevate our portfolio. This has helped to solidify City Centre Bahrain as the Kingdom’s leading shopping, entertainment, and lifestyle destination, credited to transforming the retail sector while contributing significantly to Bahrain’s economy,” said Mr Al Rumaihi.
City Centre Bahrain will continue to add to its new line-up of brands across its mall offerings.
