The Mall Blackburn has boosted its retailer line up by signing new deals with toy store Toymaster, household goods retailer Perfect Home and popular footwear retailer Shoe Zone. These lettings follow the recent completion of Debenhams multi-million pound refurbishment of its store at the centre.

Capital & Regional have completed a 10 year lease with Toymaster on a 4,196 sq ft store. Perfect Home, the expanding household goods retailer, will take 3,390 sq ft and has also signed a 10 year lease. Value footwear retailer Shoe Zone has signed a new 6 year lease and will relocate to a 2,903 sq ft unit in Victoria Court. Toymaster and Perfect Home will also be located in the Victoria Court area of The Mall.

Andrew Haughey, Retail Asset Manager at Capital & Regional, commented: "The arrival of these new retailers has reinforced The Mall Blackburn's position as the dominant retail scheme in the area. This, coupled with Debenhams multi-million pound refurbishment of its store, clearly demonstrates the strong appeal of the centre.

"The redevelopment of The Mall Blackburn continues to attract new retailers to the centre and we look forward to announcing further new names in the near future."

The 650,000 sq ft sq ft Mall Blackburn is anchored by Debenhams, Primark, H & M and Next. The Mall Fund is asset managed by Capital & Regional and fund managed by Aviva Investors.
