Signage for the new Animal store at The Mall Cribbs Causeway<\/p>\n
Hoardings for the brand new Animal store that is set to open at The Mall Cribbs Causeway<\/a> have been spotted at the popular shopping<\/a> venue. Advertising some of the brand’s fashion ensembles, the signage reads: “New store coming soon. We are hiring!<\/p>\n “Come and join us at our fast growing company – competitive salary, leadership development programme, bonus programme, 50 per cent discount.” The new store appears to be situated on the ground floor of the multi-level shopping mall, between Pret a Manger and Lovisa, and opposite Superdry and Suit Direct, near the centre of the mall.<\/p>\n It comes after BristolLive reported back in September<\/a> that the international surf brand had signed a 10-year lease at the shopping venue and will occupy a 5,000 sq ft space. Founded in the South West in 1987, Animal has gained recognition internationally with the surfing and action sports community due to its rugged and functional nature.<\/p>\n Over the past three decades it has built on its board sports heritage becoming a leading lifestyle clothing brand. It previously boasted a shop at Cabot Circus, which closed in 2021 due to an ‘extremely challenging’ time for retail.<\/a><\/p>\n Its new store at Cribbs Mall will stock Animal\u2019s full range. Katie Searle, director, asset management, at Cribbs operator Sovereign Centros by CBRE, said: \u201cLeading international brands continue to flock to Cribbs, and we are delighted to welcome Animal as our latest addition.<\/p>\n “Thanks to our extensive shopper base, for many of our brands Cribbs is consistently the best performing store across their UK portfolios. We expect Animal to perform well as the brand really resonate with our strong younger shopper demographic.<\/p>\n \u201cWith exciting residential development activity under way across the Cribbs Causeway area, our shopper base continues to grow, and brands are keen to secure their space at Cribbs Mall. With more new arrivals in the wings, we are continuing to enhance our retail and F&B offering to ensure we maintain our position as one of the country\u2019s best performing retail destinations.\u201d<\/p>\n Other brands to have recently opened up shop at The Mall include pizza restaurant<\/a> chain Pizza Express<\/a>, fashion brand AllSaints<\/a>, the ‘biggest Superdrug store in the South West<\/a>‘, and stationery store and Jellycat supplier Scribbler<\/a>.<\/p>\n Want the latest Bristol breaking news and top stories first?
