Fashion brand Mango was recently named among a host of high street brands due to open at The Mall in Cribbs Causeway. Five retailers have been announced as newcomers to the shopping centre in the near future after recently signing contracts.
Mango has been earmarked for a 10-year lease at the former Gap unit located between the Apple and Sky stores towards the centre of The Mall. Gap announced last year it was to close 81 of its stores in the United Kingdom and Ireland by the end of September, but there are still five remaining in the country, soon to be six.
The Spanish retailer first launched in 1984 and has grown to be one of the leading fashion groups in the world, offering more than 18,000 garments and accessories for men and women across an extensive store network in 110 countries. Mango will be moving into the 3,858sq ft unit with a 2,104sq ft mezzanine in Cribbs.

A spokesperson for Mango told BristolLive that while the exact opening date hasn't yet been confirmed, it definitely will not be this year. The opening is currently set for midway through 2023 around May, June or July.
It will mark the fashion brand's second store in the Bristol area after the shop in Cabot Circus, located between &Other Stories and TAG Heuer on the ground floor of the shopping centre.
Mango has already announced three new stores in the UK this autumn, Retail Gazette reports. The retailer has recently opened a store in Kent as it prepares to open at Battersea Power Station and a Newcastle location in November. It also opened nine concessions with John Lewis across the UK, ten wholesale concessions with Shaws in Ireland and four wholesale concessions with Morleys Brixton.
BristolLive will be bringing our readers updates on the new store opening in the new year.
