Steve Hammett, President of Retail, Al Futtaim Group, owner of the rights to Marks and Spencer in the Middle East, said “Marks and Spencer’s store will offer a gross footage spanning over 1,600 square meters and a mix of retail options including men, women and children’s fashions, accessories, lingerie and beauty items.”
Marks and Spencer’s newest store is expected to generate substantial sales because of the high levels of foot traffic that Citystars brings in and therefore is predicted to be a great success.
The store which will launch with their brand new autumn collection will include well known men’s wear brands such as Blue Harbour, North Coast and Autograph as well as a range of women’s wear options for all occasions from casual and leisure to smart. The women’s wear range will also include a global favourite, the Indigo collection and children’s clothes for baby’s right up to the teenage years will also be available.
Marks & Spencer, with over 800 stores located in 30 countries around the world, is the largest-turnover clothing retailer in the UK, as well as a multi-billion pound food retailer. Over 21 million people visit Marks & Spencer’s UK stores each week
