The new 7,314 sq ft unit, split over two levels, is currently under construction to fit The Entertainer’s needs, and is located adjacent to Marks & Spencer’s and Bon Marche, opposite Starbucks and close to the fellow new tenants Deichmann and Elegance Brow and Beauty who are currently fitting out their new store.
The centre is located between John Lewis and Marks & Spencer, where The Entertainer will be joining fellow top UK retailers including Next, Waterstones, Jack Wills, Laura Ashley, The Disney Store, Sainsburys, WHSmiths, the Post Office and Superdrug. Bon Accord also hosts a terrace of high-end niche fashion operators including Hobbs, Jigsaw, Phase Eight, Karren Millen, Kurt Geiger, Radley and others.
Craig Stevenson, Centre Manager at Bon Accord Shopping Centre, said, “Adding such a reputable family focused retailer will further expand the mix of retailers already available. 2019 has been an exciting year at Bon Accord, with positive footfall, new lettings and a growing array of retailers.”
The centre has attracted five new lettings since the start of the year, with Jack Wills, top German shoe retailer Deichmann and Subway already opening stores. The Entertainer joins Elegance Brow & Beauty, who have opted for Bon Accord over other city centre locations for the new premises of their first Aberdeen store.
Andrew Milner-Walker, Head of Property at The Entertainer, said, “We are delighted to have found a great location at Bon Accord, Aberdeen. We are looking forward to adding an exciting new toy shop to the centre where shoppers can find all the latest toys and games.”
