Fashion Outlet Montabaur Plans To Almost Double In Sales Area

With the expansion of the sales area of FOC Montabaur in Germany having been approved, the outlet center is to be expanded from 10,000 sq m to a total of 19,800 sq m.

The outlet center in Montabaur is to offer an even wider range of stores and restaurants thanks to the planned expansion of the sales area – and thus also create new jobs in the region, reports the German SWR.

The center will primarily be expanded on the existing parking areas. The new construction phase will have many green elements, such as more trees, as well as green roofs and facades. The company is pleased that the local authority, SGD Nord, has now granted approval for this after a complex process.

As part of the public process, more than 250 public bodies – i.e. local authorities, authorities, associations and chambers – as well as people in the region had the opportunity to have their say in the expansion plans. Following the inquiry, the total sales area of the FOC Montabaur will be limited to the 19,800 sq m applied for, the SGD Nord announced. Only “typical FOC product ranges may be offered there.”

The regional development plan also stipulates the maximum size of the sales areas for the individual product groups. For clothing, the upper limit is 16,500 sq m, including sportswear offered on up to 700 sq m of space, shoes and leather goods on up to 1,300 sq m of space, and household goods, cosmetics and delicacies, on a further 2,000 sq m.
