Shoppers were welcomed with exclusive opening offers, lively entertainment, unique selfie points and gift card promotions—setting the stage for a dynamic debut and a new chapter in outlet shopping in southern Poland.
The opening weekend delivered a strong start for brand partners, with standout performances across the board. “The launch was extremely positive for us,” said Pawel Osuch, Retail Area Manager at PVH. “Thanks to a well-executed promotional campaign, both Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger welcomed around 7,000 guests over the first three days alone. That strong turnout definitely boosted our opening results—an encouraging start!”
“It was a successful opening with high performance,” noted Eva Slobodníková, VM & DTC Activation Manager Factory Outlets East at adidas. “Our special offer attracted attention, and T-Toe sneakers stood out among our bestsellers—proving once again the trend is strong.”
