EXCITEMENT BUILDS UP FOR ACIENDA DESIGNER OUTLET OPENING
Excitement is definitely building up for the opening of the country’s first true international outlet mall along Km 48, Aguinaldo Highway in Silang, Cavite.
“Acienda Designer Outlet is ready to welcome shoppers and tourists everyday starting with our opening on Oct. 26, Friday,” announced Jeffrey Ng, president of Cathay Land.
The project is expected to draw thousands of shoppers daily since all participating brands offer a minimum of 30 percent off, which can go as high 80 percent—bargains that are definitely welcome given high inflation rates and less spending power that local shoppers have been experiencing lately.
“While the hefty discounts in fashion, sportswear and jewelry will surely attract people given the current inflationary climate, eventually we hope that the perfect mix of brands and leisure amenities on site will entice many to become repeat shoppers,” Ng declared.
Some of the lifestyle brands that are opening on Friday include Archive, Geox, Reef, Sunglass Haven, 158 Designer’s Boulevard of SSI Group, Levi’s, Oakley, Just Jewels, Mango, Guess, Mossimo, The Rail, Kid’s Depot, and RSI, which carries Florsheim and Naturalizer.
Sports and shoe brands geared towards fitness buffs include Asics, Onitsuka, Vans, Oregon Premium Outlet Store/Nike and Skechers.
Ng also promised that over the next few months, a wide range of other top international brands will further excite shoppers and tourists to make that short trip south of Manila. These additions will add to Acienda Designer Outlet’s standing as the country’s first true international outlet mall.
Meawhile, shoppers will get to relax in between shopping rounds via a detour to the Wine Bank, Pizza Warehouse, Cold Stone and Café Pascucci. These will all be conveniently located within the French-style food and beverage section accented by a three-storey windmill.
“With the cool year-round weather and the regular influx of tourists that we expect to drop by on their way to or as they go down from Tagaytay City, Acienda Designer Outlet will be a fun, hip place to shop around,” added Jayden Lewis, head of leasing for Asia of Freeport Retail, the foreign partner of Cathay Land for Acienda Designer Outlet.
