McArthurGlen Designer Outlet Málaga in Spain celebrates its first anniversary

McArthurGlen Designer Outlet Málaga has just celebrated its first anniversary after having received more than three million visitors since its opening on 13 February 2020. For the Centre, the balance of this first year is positive, despite the pandemic, both for the influx of visitors, as well as for the growth of firms present in it and the high rates of customer satisfaction.

Since its reopening in June last year, the Centre has continued its grow, incorporating new international brands such as Prada, Burberry, Armani and Furla, as well as the Spanish brands Bimba y Lola, Ecoalf and Silbon. Some of them have opened for the first time a commercial space in the south of Spain. These new firms complete the Centre’s brand mix and increase its attractiveness as a shopping destination for national and international customers.
