Uniqlo to open store in Sydney this summer

UNIQLO Australia is opening a new store in Sydney’s MidCity this summer. The store will be located at the heart of the iconic Pitt Street Mall – arguably Sydney’s most popular shopping and fashion precinct.

Following a strong response to its first Australian store, which opened in Melbourne last month, UNIQLO’s Sydney store will strengthen the brand’s growing presence within Australia – its 16th market globally.

The new Sydney store will showcase the UNIQLO Spring/Summer ’14 collection, including premium linen, polos, and the brand’s well-known AIRism range.

The Sydney MidCity store will also be a premium large-scale outlet with a sales floor of nearly 1,485 square meters spanning the entire first floor of the shopping centre. It will offer visitors a full line-up of stylish UNIQLO apparel with great ranges of men’s, women’s, kids’, and babies’ clothes.

"Australians have really embraced UNIQLO and its ‘LifeWear’ philosophy, both in Melbourne and through the online store. Opening in Sydney was always the next logical expansion across the Australian market," said Shoichi Miyasaka, CEO of UNIQLO Australia.
