Disney to open shop in Perth

Perth has been given a huge boost with the announcement that Disney will be bringing a shop to the city.

The massive American company, which has produced a succession of children’s films and entertainment through the years, will set up shop at the St John’s Shopping Centre.

A message posted on social media yesterday by Perth City Centre said: “Magical news – Disney has just announced that they are bringing a new store to St John’s Shopping Centre, Perth.

“They are currently recruiting for cast members to work in their Perth store.

“I think we all know a few little (and big) kids that will delighted with this news.”

No date has yet been supplied for the actual move to Perth but they are already advertising for jobs.

The store at St John’s Shopping Centre will sell toys and other merchandise from the animation giant’s string of hit movies.

The Walt Disney company, commonly known as Disney, is a global brand which was founded in 1923. It became known as a leader in animation with its most famous character, Mickey Mouse, before diversifying into movies.

Mickey Mouse is the signature mascot and emblem for Disney.

Some of its best known productions are Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Cinderalla, Peter Pan, Toy Story and Frozen.
