Sports Direct to open 94,000 sq ft Wolverhampton store

Sports Direct is set to unveil its new Frasers multi-brand store concept in a 94,000 sq ft flagship store in the Mander Centre, Wolverhampton.

The multi-level store will become home to the Frasers, FLANNELS, Sports Direct & USC brands, when Debenhams departs in early 2020.

Jonathan Ratnage, retail sector specialist at private equity real estate manager Benson Elliot, said: “We are delighted to welcome Frasers to the Mander Centre. This is terrific news for our loyal shoppers who will see a significant upgrade in our premium brand line up.

“This long-term commitment signifies the confidence major brands have in both Wolverhampton and the Mander Centre as the city’s pre-eminent customer destination.

“The Mander team work hard to give all our customers good reasons to shop locally in the city where they live and work. The new Frasers offering will serve to broaden the city centre’s appeal across a wider catchment area, supporting and sustaining jobs and investment into the future.”

Michael Murray, head of elevation at Sports Direct International said: “We are really proud to have secured this retail destination in the heart of Wolverhampton and look forward to bringing our new elevated multi-brand concept to the Mander Centre in 2020.”
