“We’re simply overwhelmed by the support we’ve received from shoppers throughout the greater metropolitan region,” said Outlets of Mississippi General Manager Kathy Hackshaw. “While we’re certainly pleased with our strong debut in the market, we’re more pleased for our merchants, many of whom reported sales results which greatly exceeded planned goals for our grand opening period.”
Helping to celebrate the outlet center’s grand opening under colorful sprays of confetti and streamers, Mississippi Governor Phil Bryant and City of Pearl Mayor Brad Rogers were on-hand to officially open its doors as each government official nodded to the positive impact the Outlets of Mississippi will have on the region’s local economy.
“Along with significant tax dollars the Outlets of Mississippi will generate, the property has also created tremendous employment opportunities for our region. More than 1,600 individuals have now started their new jobs at the outlet center,” stated Mayor Rogers.
Developed by Spectrum Capital, a privately-owned, diversified real estate firm, the new $80 million, 325,000 outlet center features a collection of more than 80 leading designer and top name brands including Saks Fifth Avenue OFF 5TH, Coach Factory, Michael Kors, Cole Haan, Ann Taylor, LOFT, J.Crew, Chico’s Outlet, White House/Black Market, Levi’s, adidas, Nike Factory Store and Under Armour, among many more, each offering savings of up to 65 percent off regular retail prices every day. In addition to its robust tenant roster, the Outlets of Mississippi proudly touts the state’s rich history and heritage showcasing local art, historical exhibits and regional music along with housing the Mississippi Development Authority within its Visitor Services center to welcome guests, distribute literature and inform shoppers of popular attractions throughout the state.
