KPMG, the administrator of failed shoe retailer Dolcis, has appointed King Sturge to market 42 stores that are surplus to requirements following last week’s sale of the brand to rival chain Stylo.
The prime store units are spread across England and Scotland, including a number of high-profile shopping centre locations including the MetroCentre in Gateshead, Bluewater in Kent and Cribbs Causeway in Bristol. All the units are leasehold and are around 2,000 sq ft in size.
Martin Crossley, joint head of UK retail leasing at King Sturge, said: “These are all prime units and it’s encouraging how much interest we’ve already had from such diverse occupiers as fashion brands, coffee and phone shops and lingerie retailers. We can either sell them on as a complete package or in smaller parcels.”
