Thornfield Properties has attracted two new retailers to its Springfield outlet centre in Spalding, Lincolnshire. The centre, which has recently been granted approval for a second phase expansion, has attracted Tchibo and Ex-Z.
Tchibo has taken 2,150 sq ft (200 sq m) on a new 10 year lease on base and turnover rents for its first-ever outlet mall operation. And ex-Z, the independent retailer licensed to dispose of surplus Zara stock, is taking 4,000 sq ft. The arrivals follow the opening of Farah’s first outlet store at Springfield’s in May 2006.
The first phase of Springfields Outlet Centre comprises 140,000 sq ft of retail outlet, restaurant space and a garden centre. Tenants include Marks & Spencer, C&J Clark, Reebok, Costa Coffee, Mexx and Suits You. The proposed extension will provide a further 25,000 sq ft of ground floor retail space over 10 units, with a hotel at first and second where terms have been agreed with an operator.
Markham Vaughan Gillingham is letting agent and Capital Retail advised Tchibo.
