Nepi Rockcastle has opened a 5,000 sqm extension to its 37,500 sqm Pogoria Shopping Centre in Dąbrowa Górnicza, attracting seven new retailers to the mall.
The two-level extension, part of Nepi Rockcastle's €870 million CEE portfolio development programme, was completed in 15 months. New tenants include Just GYM, Fikołki children's playroom, fashion brand Medicine, multi-brand retailer Worldbox and cosmetic company Verona.
Poland's retail company CCC and clothing brand Diverse are moving to new stores in the extension, while eobuwie.pl and fashion brand Tatuum will open in their former locations. The works included reconstruction of the building's facade to make the centre more cohesive with the surrounding urban environment.
"The decision to expand Pogoria was a natural step in response to growing demand from both tenants and customers at this location," said Łukasz Lorencki, Asset Manager at Nepi Rockcastle. "We have brought new brands and amenities to Dąbrowa Górnicza to cater to the evolving tastes of residents and have also created new employment opportunities."
This is the second expansion carried out by Nepi Rockcastle since acquiring the property in 2016, reinforcing Pogoria Shopping Centre's position as a key shopping and leisure destination in the region.
