maybe its strategy to attract more visitors to starhill. but i'm glad that debenhams in lot 10 doing well and that's why they're moving to a bigger space. their current space at lot 10 for me too small.

yeah, I thought that too. Dun think its wise for them to relocate to Starhill. I like their Lot 10 store, big frontage and classy interior.

realitybites-u · January 18th, 2012, 04:22 PM

realitybites-u · January 18th, 2012, 04:27 PM

travellator · January 26th, 2012, 12:26 PM

Swedish H&M to open first KL store this year

KUALA LUMPUR: Swedish fashion retailer H&M Hennes & Mauritz AB will open its first store in Malaysia this year.

Its entry has been much awaited with rumours of its opening going as far back in 2009.

The company, in its financial report released on January 26 this year, confirmed its foray into Malaysia this year.

“We are planning for a strong expansion in 2012 with about 275 new stores net. The countries in which we will open the most stores during the year are China, the US and the UK.

Bulgaria, Latvia, Malaysia and Thailand will become new H&M markets,” it said in its report for the December 1 2010 to November 30 2011 period.

The retailer, which operates a bulk of its stores under the H&M brand, said it remains positive with its future expansion and business opportunities.

“H&M is continuing to expand in Southeast Asia with a store opening in Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia during the autumn 2012,” it said.While in Malaysia it will open on its own, the expansion in Thailand will be a franchise with JS Gill.

Last year, the group’s network expanded by 266 stores.

Industry sources contacted by Business Times on the potential H&M store location in Kuala Lumpur said the retailer’s preference is to have a presence where there is a high foot
traffic and immediate visibility.

Equally important is that it can have a store size of 10,000 sq ft to 30,000 sq ft, they added.

Based on these criteria, its first store may be in a mall along Jalan Bukit Bintang, Suria KLCC or Mid Valley Mega Mall.

As this brand offering is similar to those of Britain’s Topshop and Japan’s Uniqlo, H & M could very well expand into other shopping complexes even within suburban areas like in Sunway Pyramid and 1Utama Shopping Centre.

As at end of November 2011, the total number of stores in the group was 2,472 of which 70 are franchise stores, 45 COS stores, 52 Monki stores, 19 Weekday stores and 4 Cheap Monday stores.
It has a presence in 43 markets.

The entry of H&M stores here, sources said, could next witness US casual wear retailer Abercrombie & Fitch entry into Malaysia.

Both H&M and Abercrombie & Fitch already have a presence in Singapore.

Abercrombie in Malaysia? reallllyyy? I highly doubt that, with Malaysian goverment patronizing, parenting the market and knowing Abercrombie and it's racey ads...ain't gonna happen unless they have to totally tailor their ads to local strict rules, ya think they would really do that?hmmm but then again...maybe they would if they plan on epening stores in other Islamic countries and Malaysia as a launching pad and test market for such venture? .... maybe a Mont Kiara market mall would be an exemp?
