Jack Wills is adding a new store to its UK portfolio at The Beacon shopping centre in Eastbourne.

Located in the new 170,000-square-foot extension, the store is the latest to open at The Beacon following H&M, Next, Fatface, Schuh, New Look, Paperchase and Flying Tiger.

Commenting on the opening, Neil Beaman, head of store development for Jack Wills said: “We are very excited to be opening in Eastbourne in the run up to Christmas. The Beacon is the perfect location for us and we’re looking forward to welcoming everyone to our brand-new store.”

The space is due to open on Saturday, offering the brand’s clothing ranges, from contemporary casual to more formal wear, which have been a key part of Jack Wills’ narrative since opening its first store in Devon in 1999.

Andrew Rice, Fund Manager for Legal & General, said: “It’s fantastic to see this dynamic brand opening in the Centre. It’s a great fit for Eastbourne!”

The second phase of the shopping centre’s extension will open in April 2019 with Cineworld, Ask, Chiquitos, Frankie & Benny’s and local jewellers W. Bruford as part of the line-up.
