Record footfall figures at shopping destination
City centre shopping destination, Victoria Leeds – which is owned and operated by Redical – is celebrating its strongest ever footfall figures at Victoria Gate along with two new store openings.
Footfall at Victoria Gate is up 15% compared to the centre’s previously busiest footfall year of 2019.
An additional 850,000 people have been through the centre’s doors in 2024, with Victoria Gate on target to achieve a million more visitors than 2019, by the end of the year.
Bolstering this performance, is the opening of two new stores from British leather bag brand, Cambridge Satchel, and Nordic-inspired home décor retailer, Northhome.
Joining these recent openings at Victoria Leeds is Boodles’ newly launched entertainment room, known as The Rose Garden Suite.
The family-owned jeweller has invested to increase its trading space by more than double, increasing from 1,200 sq ft to 2,700 sq ft.
Rachel Bradburn, leasing director at Victoria Leeds, said: “2024 is revealing itself to be a standout year for us, welcoming a number of incredible new brands across the centre, working with existing brands to facilitate growth opportunities and seeing footfall at Victoria Gate reach new heights.
“The latest openings of Cambridge Satchel and Northhome reflect these accomplishments, and I look forward sharing what is in store for Victoria Leeds in 2025.”
