A handful of new retailers, including some opening their first locations in Arizona, are nearing their debut at Tempe Marketplace.
Phoenix-based Vestar, the owner and operator of the mall, located at Rio Salado Parkway and McClintock Drive, announced five new tenants, leasing a total of 25,000 square feet in the shopping center.
Carhartt, a workwear and outdoor apparel brand opened this summer at Tempe Marketplace, the retailer’s first standalone location in Arizona.
“The addition of these nationally recognized brands reinforces Tempe Marketplace’s role as a destination where shoppers can discover the latest in fashion, outdoor, and lifestyle experiences,” Taylor Alvey, vice president of leasing at Vestar, said in a statement. “We’re proud to continue
curating a dynamic, high-quality mix of brands that elevates the shopping experience and reinforces Tempe Marketplace as a premier retail destination in the Valley.”
