The Szachownica chain of clothing shops has joined the group of tenants of Galeria Sudecka which is being developed by Echo Investment in Jelenia Góra.

Szachownica is a countrywide chain of clothing shops, which offers women"s, men"s and children"s clothing as well as accessories. The company has operated on the Polish market since 2002. “Szachownica will have an area of 400 sqm. It is worth emphasizing that the clothing chain mostly addresses it soffer to young people who appreciate top quality at low prices. The interior of the shop will be characterized by spaciousness and bright colours. I am convinced that this kind of shop will enjoy popularity among our customers,” says Michał Banasik, leasing manager in Echo Investment"s Shopping Centre Department. Galeria Sudecka is 99-pct leased. Only three small outlets are still available. The investor declares that Galeria Sudecka will be 100-pct leased on its opening date. Echo Investment has recently signed contracts with: the C&A chain (1,200 sqm), Orsay, Bytom, Magnetic and Medicine, Aquael ZOO, Pawo, Badura, Prezenciarnia, Simple and Vision Express. The majority of tenants have already taken over their areas. The brands which are fitting out their outlets include: Helios, Fabryka Formy, Reserved, C&A, Go Sport, Super-Pharm, RTV Euro AGD, Smyk, Empik, Martes Sport, Diverse and CCC. The investor also applied for a building permit for a Leroy Merlin DIY market. In February earlier this year Echo Investment, acting on behalf of Leroy Merlin, acquired a legally binding environmental decision. The planned launch of the construction work is June this year. The opening of Leroy Merlin with a total area of 15,000 sqm as well as a car park including 500 spaces is planned for March 2016. www.galeriasudecka.pl
