New retailers sign up to
Wayfarers Arcade in Southport
THE Liverpool based commercial agent
Hitchcock Wright and Partners have secured the letting of Units 2 and 47, at
Wayfarers Shopping Arcade, in Southport, to The Master Barber's Shop and Time4me
Workshops. The Master Barber's Shop, which previously occupied another unit in
the building, has made the move to larger premises due to the success and
expansion of the business. It will occupy a 2,403 sq ft, 2 storey unit, in the
Grade II listed shopping arcade, on a 10 year lease. New tenant Time4me
Workshops, will occupy a 238 sq ft unit on a 3 year lease. Ran by Margo Price,
the new shop will sell fabrics, haberdashery and run sewing classes. Located on
Lord Street, in Southport Town Centre, the arcade has more than 30 shops across
2 levels which totals circa 75,000 sq ft of net trading space. Retailers include
Beales department store, Multiyork, Coco Boutique, Gentle Cosmetics, Rohan,
Vintage Home, Lapel, Sweet Memories, Yankee Candles and Pudding and Pie. The new
lettings follows a string of new incentives now being offered to businesses
interested in opening a shop in the historic shopping arcade. Any new retailers
interested in a retail unit could benefit from ˝price
rent for its 1st year of trading. John Barker, partner at Hitchcock Wright,
says:- "The retail offer at Wayfarers Shopping Arcade is a great mix of
local speciality businesses which all bring a unique shopping experience to
Southport. The expansion of The Master Barber's Shop and introduction of Time4me
Workshops continue to make the retail offer even stronger. We understand how
difficult it can be for independent or first time retailers to find the right
location, at the right price. The new incentive of a 50% rent reduction offers
an attractive opportunity for retailers to set up shop in the thriving Wayfarers
Shopping Arcade and join Southport's buoyant high street."
Hitchcock Wright acted on behalf of Lord Street Properties Ltd for the latest
signings. For more information about the remaining units and incentives on
