Next to anchor Straiton retail park
February 12 2016
Straiton Retail Park is to be anchored by a new 80,000sq/ft Next store after the clothing group agreed terms to a pre-let with park owner Peel.The expanded unit will be the largest Next store in Scotland when redevelopment completes this June, significantly extending the retailers existing 15,000sq/ft presence in the out of town retail park.
Clad in Jura limestone and curtain wall glazing the new store is being delivered in tandem with an overhaul of the Station Road frontage.
Mark Whittaker, group property director at Peel Land and Property, said: “Benefiting from its strategic central position on the City of Edinburgh bypass, with retailers reporting exceptional like-for-like sales growth, we feel Straiton is perfectly placed to position itself firmly in the upper tier of the UK retail hierarchy, bringing significant economic benefits to the wider Edinburgh area.”
