Kiwi Property has constructed the shell of a brand new 2,528m2 store located in the heart of Sylvia Park and ZARA will commence fitting out its first New Zealand store.

With the store set to open to the public this spring, ZARA will join a range of national and international retailers in one of the best shopping destinations in the country.

Kiwi Property’s GM Retail Karl Retief says the company has invested $11.5 million to create ZARA’s new store in an eight-month development program.

“The new site, located in the heart of Sylvia Park, has an extensive storefront which is five times the size of one of our standard fashion retailers. Sylvia Park with ZARA will offer shoppers a world-class experience,” Retief says.

Sylvia Park has seen a number of new retailers open at the centre in recent months, including Lush and Converse, with Nike and Kiehls coming soon. Later this year, New Zealand’s first H&M store will also be opening at Sylvia Park. SCN
