Hollister to Open NY Flagship

(June 2009) posted on Tue Jun 23, 2009

Store will bring the Southern California lifestyle to SoHo


Abercrombie & Fitch (New Albany, Ohio) plans to open the doors to the first EPIC Hollister store in New York in July. The four-level, 40,000-square-foot store will be located at 600 Broadway, on the southeast corner of Houston and Broadway.  "The EPIC store is what Hollister is all about – big waves, surf, sun, and hanging out on the pier," says the company in a statement.

Parent company Abercrombie & Fitch, which also operates the abercrombie and Gilly Hicks nameplates, has strong expansion plans in 2009, including opening an Abercrombie & Fitch flagship in Milan in October and an 11-story Abercrombie & Fitch in Tokyo's Ginza district in December.

The company recently announced it was closing its 29-store Ruehl division, which has struggled to draw sales during the tough economy.
