MEDIA RELEASE - In a move set to excite the
people of South Africa, leading Australian retail brand, Cotton On, is thrilled to announce
their new store opening at the V&A Waterfront on 30 May 2014. The launch will mark the
Group’s 100th store in South Africa.
At 1500 square metres, the new Cotton On
store will be the largest in the Western Cape and will offer collections from
Cotton On, Cotton On Body, Free and Rubi Shoes. The stable of Cotton On Group
brands will deliver on-trend basics and fun, affordable fashion which South Africans have come to
know and love.
Since opening their first store in 1991 in Australia, the Cotton On Group has been rapidly growing with no plans to slow down. Now with over 1300 stores in 16 countries, the Cotton On Group maintains its commitment to reach more people across the globe. The Australian retail giant has been operating in South Africa since 2011.
Free by Cotton
On, which launched in South Africa in 2013, will be available at the new
V&A store catering to the free-spirited, independent minded boys and girls
(9-14 yrs) who have outgrown the kids range and are too young for adults, but
want to wear a brand that allows them to express their individuality and have
fun with their fashion. Free by Cotton On makes it easier for South African
parents who struggle to make a transition from Cotton On Kids to finding a
brand that they feel is appropriate for their “tweens” to wear.
“We pride
ourselves on the notion that there is something in our stores that absolutely
everyone will love. Our aim at every turn is to ensure that whenever our
customers walk into any one of our stores, they will leave happy,” explains Cotton On Group Country
Manager, Johan van Wyk.
The new Cotton On store will
open its doors on 30 May 2014, operating daily from 9am – 9pm, and will be located at Shop 146B V&A Waterfront, Victoria
Wharf.
Totes exciting...
