Major brand confirms opening date for Preston Fishergate store after 630k investment
The store brings nine new jobs to Preston.
A big brand has confirmed when its newest store will open in Preston.
It emerged last November that shoe retailer DEICHMANN was planning to bring a new branch to Fishergate, which will fill two empty units, after a planning application was submitted to Preston City Council to combine what was the Emmaus charity store and the former Mountain Warehouse next door.
Now, following a £630,000 investment, the store at 25-27 Fishergate is preparing to open with nine new jobs created.
The new site will stock a full range of footwear for men, women and children including exclusive lines from brands such as adidas, Nike, Skechers and Fila.
Marko Josifoski, CEO at DEICHMANN UK said: “We’re really pleased to be opening this new store and bringing our great value offering to Preston. We have an extensive range of brands and footwear for the whole family available and we’re looking forward to customers discovering all that the new store has to offer.”
The store will officially open on Tuesday, March 17, with an opening celebration on Saturday, March 21. The event will see special offers and family fun activities, including free shoes for the store’s first 25 customers on March 21 (up to £30) and a spin the wheel game.
