Country Road’s first menswear pop-up store has launched at Sydney Airport’s T2 Domestic terminal.
The lifestyle fashion retailer will house a curated range of apparel, including shirts, accessories and a denim collection. It will also include a selection of workwear targeting business travellers.
“We’re proud to deliver Country Road’s first menswear pop-up, exclusive to Sydney Airport,” said Glyn Williams, Sydney Airport general manager.
” The offering reinforces our commitment to deliver innovative and exciting retail concepts that excite customers and enhance the value and choice that we offer.”
The Country Road pop-up joins global fashion chain, Calvin Klein, who recently made its first foray into travel retail within Australia.
Owned by South African retailer, Woolworths Holdings, Country Road Group, suffered a 0.4 per cent drop in like-for-like sales while overall sales rose 5.1 per cent, in Australian dollar terms, in its most recent results.
The South African conglomerate said retail space declined at CRG by a net 1.9 per cent, and the inclusion of newly-acquired Politix added 3.7 per cent.
The retail group said Country Road´s “above-market performance reflected the ongoing improvements to ranges during the year.”
