Dalton Park Outlet, the largest outlet shopping destination in the North-East, has reported a significant rise in sales across the centre.
Reflecting on the year since January, Dalton Park Outlet’s total transactions are up by an impressive 19.8% while its food and beverage offering has climbed by 9.4% YTD.
With brands such as Levi’s, Calvin Klein, Adidas, Tommy Hilfiger, Marks & Spencer and Le Creuset within the centre, it’s no surprise the booming retail destination is seeing growth across all categories.
Key contributors to the F&B growth include strong performances from popular brands such as Costa, Greggs, Etto Caffé, and Bakers + Baristas, all of which have seen a substantial uplift in sales. The increase highlights that visitors continue to extend their visits to enjoy dining against the unique backdrop of Dalton Park Outlet’s landscaped parkland.
These positive numbers highlight the centre’s commitment to improving customer experience through a premium retail offering, while simultaneously meeting the growing appetite among shoppers for quality, on-the-go dining options.
As part of this, the outlet centre continues to support local businesses as part of its food and leisure offering. North-East-owned independent burrito bar Zapatista joined Dalton Park Outlet’s dining options earlier this year, while the recent launch of Wizard Golf experience The Hole in Wand has diversified the centre’s family appeal.
Nicky Lovell, head of uutlets and business development at Global Mutual, said: “We’re delighted to see such a strong performance across the board at Dalton Park Outlet. This year, we’ve invested time and money into ensuring our new openings across both retail and leisure meet with what our visitors are looking for.
“Our considered leasing approach strategically blends local brands with a broad mix of designer and high street names in a beautiful parkland setting, making Dalton Park Outlet a unique outlet shopping destination.”
