Yoomoo to open at Bluewater
Published: 13 September, 2010
Yoomoo, the luxury frozen yoghurt brand that opens its first store at Harrods this month, is to open its second at Bluewater
Situated in the Lower Thames Walk, Yoomoo will begin trading this autumn from a 480-sq ft unit and joins Cadbury Cocoa House, which opens its first store in the UK at Bluewater in early October.
The news coincides with a very strong performance from Bluewater in August, with an increase in sales of 8.8 per cent versus the same time last year, its seventh consecutive month of growth. Footfall at Bluewater was also up by 11.2 per cent for the same period.
Andrew Parkinson, Bluewater’s general manager, said: “A combination of ‘Back to School’ and the arrival of new autumn ranges in many of Bluewater’s fashion retailers drove our strong performance.
Both Yoomoo and Cadbury Cocoa House are adjacent to the Bluewater Events Venue. The £60m development, which opens in autumn 2012, is an industry first, creating a bespoke space for major events and exhibitions.
