JD is the latest retail giant to open its doors at The Ashley Centre

Sportswear retailer JD has opened the doors to its 4,453 sq ft regional flagship at CBRE Investment Management’s Ashley Centre in Epsom.

Located on the ground level near the central square, the new store provides exclusive products as well as its full range of clothing, footwear and accessories. This includes footwear and clothing from world-renowned brands such as Nike, Adidas, The North Face and Puma.

James Air, Head of Group Acquisitions at JD, added: "JD is pleased to have opened a new store in the heart of The Ashley Centre. It was great to work with Duncan Kite and CBRE IM to make this happen and we are confident this will be a fantastic new store for the community."

The landlord, CBRE Investment Management, has invested £5 million in to refurbishing the Ashley Centre, creating positive change and driving new brands to the destination for the community. New additions include European footwear giant, Deichmann, which opened on 3 July following a £40,000 investment.

Louisa Butters, Head of Retail Asset Management UK at CBRE Investment Management, commented: "The unveiling of JD is reflective of our commitment to the refurbishment plans for the scheme and is a significant regional launch for the Ashley Centre.

"This new flagship store is just one of a number of new openings we have welcomed in the past six months, especially targeted to enhance the customer experience and is part of our ongoing strategy for the destination."
