Sharon Walsh, Leasing Director at Falcon AM, asset managers for Blanchardstown Centre, added: “We are extremely excited about the opening of FatFace. The new store responds directly to demand for a more diversified fashion offer from our catchment and closely follows several other great additions such as Calvin Kelin and Flannels.
“Here at Blanchardstown, we are experiencing strong demand for space – reflecting the success of investment in the centre over the last few years, as well as the continued resilience of prime physical retail.”
