Clarks to take over Brantano stores (for two weeks)

16/05/2013
Footwear brand Clarks has entered into an agreement with shoe retail group Brantano, under which 150 Brantano stores in the UK will “turn into pop-up Clarks stores” for two weeks at the end of May and beginning of June.

Other footwear brands will continue to be on sale in the Brantano stores, but a spokesperson for the retail group told footwearbiz.com that the company wanted to drive awareness that Brantano stocks current-season Clarks shoes.

“We will be selling other brands, but within those two weeks we will be concentrating on Clarks,” the spokesperson said. “The takeover events are a great way to promote top brands to our customers, in locations that they might not be expecting, like retail parks. It’s a great alternative to shopping the High Street.”
