Gant's new Dundrum store

US fashion giant Gant is to open its first stand-alone store in Ireland at Dundrum, the 850,000 sq ft shopping centre 5km to the south of Dublin the centre. The Gant store will trade from 5,800 sq ft over two floors and will be situated in the centre’s Pembroke District close to Harvey Nichols, Urban Outfitters and LK Bennett.

At the same time developer Crossridge has let 100,000 sq ft at the Dundrum South site, which offers larger units fronting onto the surface car park. Snow+Rock, will trade from 14,000 sq ft over two levels. Elverys Sports, Ireland’s longest established sports retailer, has taken 23,000 sq ft and Hughes & Hughes Booksellers 10,000 sq ft. And Royal & Sun Alliance has signed up as the major occupier of a new 100,000 sq ft office development at Dundrum.

Dundrum centre director Don Nugent said: “Since first opening its doors for business in 2005, Dundrum has firmly established itself as one of Ireland’s most popular shopping destinations with an estimated 300,000 shoppers visiting the centre each week. Its popularity has seen annual sales reach in excess of EUR650m in 2007 and with a 500,000 sq ft expansion to commence in 2008, we look forward to continuing that success.”

Bannon and HOK Savills are the joint leasing agents for Dundrum.
