Woodfield Mall landed several new retailers and eateries, with a total of five establishments slated to open their doors later this year.
The collection of recruits are geared toward offering Schaumburg's shoppers a range of choices, organizers said.
“Our local shoppers and destination shoppers from across the Chicago metro, and beyond, count on Woodfield Mall to provide the broadest selection of top national retail brands in the market,” Chris Speca, general manager of Woodfield Mall, said in a statement released Monday. “The addition of Abercrombie & Fitch and Gilly Hicks before the holiday shopping season further cements that positioning.”
Here's a roster of the latest establishments:
Abercrombie & Fitch
The lifestyle brand that produces casualwear is anticipated to open its new storefront in November at the lower-level Grand Court, next to Express.
Gilly Hicks
Local
An affiliate of Abercrombie & Fitch, Gilly Hicks specializes in intimates, offering underwear, activewear and loungewear. The store will reside on the same ground as Abercrombie & Fitch, but debut in October, a month earlier than its counterpart.
