High-style, low-price retailer DownEast Outfitters has expanded further into the Western United States by opening its first DownEast Clothing store in Wyoming. The new store, located at the White Mountain Mall in Rock Springs, offers the very best merchandise – with its full line of DownEast Basics apparel and a variety of well-known, national denim brands – at the very best prices.
Local shoppers are already flocking to the new store, which opened in early June, as it is one of the few retail stores in the region where many of these top brand names can be found. To celebrate the new opening with customers, DownEast will host an official grand opening event at the store, offering shoppers a chance to enter a “Shopping's More Fun with Your Girlfriends” giveaway.
New Wyoming Store Part of Retailer's Long-Term Western Expansion Strategy
“Our decision to open a store in Wyoming was motivated by two factors: first, our strategic five-year plan as a retailer to aggressively expand throughout the West, and second, our strong relationship with General Growth Properties, which owns the White Mountain Mall as well as many of the other malls where we have locations,” said Jonathan Freedman, Vice President of Apparel, DownEast. “Given that we've seen very high customer traffic and sales in just two weeks at the new Rock Springs location, we know it was the right strategic decision to offer our high-style, low-price concept to Wyoming shoppers. We look forward to a long presence in the area.”
General Growth Properties (GGP) is a publicly traded real estate investment trust that owns or manages over 200 regional shopping malls in forty-five states. It has a reputation for operating malls that embody a sense of community by integrating the latest in fashion-forward retail and lifestyle tenants with the best in dining and entertainment venues.
“DownEast's mission to make shopping a fun, guilt-free experience closely aligns with GGP's philosophy, which is that the malls are more than places to shop – they are also places to experience,” said Freedman. “When GGP encouraged us to consider White Mountain for our next store opening, we believed it would be a win-win situation.”
