Gift and gadget retailer Menkind is set to open a new store at Eastgate Square, marking its return to Chester after two years.
Known for its mix of gadgets, gifts, collectibles and pop culture favourites, Menkind will add another new name to Eastgate Square’s growing retail line-up. The new store will offer everything from remote control cars, gaming gear and drones to Funko Pops, fidget toys and merchandise from names including Star Wars, Marvel and Pokémon.
Lisa Rogers, Centre Manager at Eastgate Square, said: “We’re really pleased to be welcoming Menkind to Eastgate Square and back to Chester. It’s a fun, recognisable name with something a little different to offer, and we know it will be a great addition to the centre. There’s a real sense of momentum at Eastgate Square at the moment, and it’s fantastic to see another retailer choosing to be part of what’s happening here.”
Rob Newman, Director of Retail at Menkind, said: “We are incredibly excited to be returning to Chester. It is a fantastic city, and we have missed connecting with our Cheshire customers over the past two years. Seeing the transformation of Eastgate Square and the influx of well-known retailers back into the centre made this the perfect time and place to re-establish our presence. We can’t wait to welcome the community back into our store.”
The opening will mark a return to Chester for Menkind, with the retailer choosing Eastgate Square for its new city location. The announcement follows a busy period of new arrivals at Eastgate Square, with Menkind becoming the latest retailer to join us.
