McArthurGlen Designer Outlet Neumünster is due to start work this summer on its first extension since opening its doors near Hamburg in September 2012. The centre is a joint venture between TIAA Henderson Real Estate and McArthurGlen, Europe’s leading owner, developer and manager of designer outlets. With plans to open in Autumn 2015, the new phase will add 6,900 sq m of GLA, offering the opportunity to add around 25 additional stores to the centre. It will bring the total number of stores to 116, with 26,800 sq m of GLA. Leading brands at the centre include Armani, Corneliani, Escada, Hugo Boss and Michael Kors, as well as Baldinini, Marc Cain, Nike and Pollini.
