The store will be located in a 6,070 square-foot space at the mall’s first level, adjacent to Michael Kors and across from La Favorita and BCBG. It should be open by Christmas, mall officials said.
“We’re continue expanding our fashion mix in Plaza with this new store that brings internationally recognized quality and prestige,” said Rafael Ruiz-Comas, corporate leasing director for Plaza Las Américas.
“The experience with [Spanish fashion retailer] Zara here at Plaza has been so positive that it opened the doors for Inditex to approve the opening of two new stores in Puerto Rico: a Zara in Plaza del Caribe in Ponce and a Massimo Dutti in San Juan, in the same year,” he added.
