Space NK has signed a 10-year lease on a 3,313 sq ft unit on New Cannon Street at Manchester Arndale.
The personal care and cosmetics retailer stocks more than 130 brands, such as Drunk Elephant, Nars, Charlotte Tilbury and Diptyque, alongside a host of exclusive products such as Boy Smells and Rose Inc.
Global Mutual and M&G – asset managers of Manchester Arndale – said they are in talks with several retailers over the remaining space at the centre.
Steve Gray, head of European retail asset management at Global Mutual, said: “Space NK is a great addition to Manchester Arndale and further enhances our beauty range, making us the go-to place in the North West for all the best cosmetic brands. It is also great to see both Timberland and Jack & Jones renew their commitment to Manchester Arndale as they are both great footfall drivers for the centre and strengthen our fashion offering. 2023 was a great year for the centre, and with this latest news we look forward to an even better 2024 as we welcome further new occupiers over the next few months.”
Metis Real Estate and Time Retail Partners are the centre’s retained letting agents and Green & Partners is the retained lease advisory agent.
