After a very successful Christmas period, when UK brand FatFace saw its largest-ever week of sales, the company is set to open an upsized store at Bluewater shopping centre, located in Stone, Kent.

Its presence at the out-of-town shopping centre will be doubled to create a 7,753 sq ft statement store, due to open on March 24.

“FatFace enjoys huge popularity at Bluewater, largely due to our brand being very closely aligned to Bluewater’s guests,” said Robert Moore, Acquisitions Manager at FatFace.

The label, which sells womenswear and menswear products designed in the UK, plans to open eight new stores in the United Kingdom this year, as well roll out its first physical stores in the US in Maine and Boston.

In addition to FatFace, Bluewater is also welcoming the launch of a Kiehl’s statement store. The upsized unit spreads over 410 sq ft, while H&M is currently fitting out a new 40,000 sq ft store, ready for opening this autumn.
