Utrecht-based shopping mall Hoog Catharijne will be adding 27 new shops to its store portfolio. The new shops, which will be situated at the Zuidpassage and are scheduled to open in November 2018, are part of the mall’s larger expansion plans.

The Zuidpassage area will add 11,500 square metres of additional shopping space to the mall, reports Dutch newspaper Algemeen Dagblad. Hoog Catharijne mall, which first opened in 1973, re-opened its doors in the spring of 2017 after a renovation that started in 2012 and offered 17,000 square metres of retail space at the time.

Since the 2017 re-opening, Hoog Catharijne has welcomed a mix of national and international retailers, including Hunkemoller’s HKMX sportswear, Van Haren Schoenen, Amazing Jewelry, Inglot Cosmetics and G-Star. Scottish menswear label Lyle & Scott, which recently entered the Dutch market with a Rotterdam store, will also land at the Utrecht-based mall in October.

In addition to the existing stores and upcoming Zuidpassage, Hoog Catharijne also plans to unveil a Hudson’s Bay and a branch of Primark. The retailers are planned to set up shop in 2019. In total, Hoog Catharijne will offer about 80,000 square metres of shopping space when renovations are completed.
