THE first two retailers, Cotton Traders and Mountain Warehouse, have opened at the new shopping village at The Valley in Evesham.

Formerly Evesham Country Park, the complex has undergone a multi-million pound re-development of its 125 acre site to create a shopping, leisure and adventure destination.

Cotton Traders has moved from its existing shop at The Valley to one of the new retail units, expanding from 1200 to 2000 sq. ft to offer shoppers a greater choice of products. While Mountain Warehouse is new to The Valley retail mix and brings 4000 sq. ft. of the best outdoor gear for all the family.

The new shopping village will see more retailers open within the next couple of months and as 2015 progresses the development will continue to transform, incorporating new indoor and outdoor leisure and adventure zones to complement the shopping offer and provide a great day out for all ages.

Spencer Gower, Eagle One retail asset manager, said: “We are delighted to launch our new shopping village with Cotton Traders and Mountain Warehouse, and are looking forward to more retailers opening at The Valley in the coming weeks. We have lots of exciting plans underway and as well as our existing visitors we are looking forward to welcoming lots more families to The Valley.”
