H ready for grand opening
The popular discount furniture store IKEA opened its doors in Centennial over the summer and this week, the affordable retailer H is celebrating its grand opening on the 16th Street Mall in downtown Denver.
Many consumers believe H knows what it takes to satisfy even the savviest shoppers.
"Europeans get this. They've gotten discountvalue shopping for years. They do it in a bigger, better way. They are fashion oriented, and they are bringing their business model to Denver," said Mary Beth Jenkins, CEO of the Laramie Company and a commercial real estate consultant with 30 years of experience.
Jenkins says the arrival of IKEA and H this year not only helps shoppers looking for instant gratification without the guilt of overspending, but it also helps other local businesses.
"As shoppers come for an anchor, they will spill out on the smaller shops on 16th Street," she said.
On Thursday alone, when H officially opens, the spill out is expected to be huge.
"This entire lane of Glenarm will be full of people waiting for H to open," Samuel Schimek, who runs the I Heart Denver store just across from H in the Denver Pavilions.
Schimek is helping to plan an entire cultural event around Thursday's opening to take advantage of the estimated 1,000 to 2,000 people expected to show up.
"The best part for me is all the tents we'll have on Glenarm over this way. Over 25 vendors will be here, including the Denver Art Museum, Art Institute of Colorado and many more," Schimek said.
The event, called Street Style, will also feature five runway shows,[url=http://www.holisteroutlet.cc]hollister pas cher[/url], giving neighboring retailers a chance to capture a shopper's attention while they wait in line outside H for the doors to open at noon.
"I'm terribly excited. If I wasn't working that day I'd be here," Debbie Bates, a local shopper, said.
The first 500 people to come down to H grand opening on Thursday will receive a gift card worth from $5 to $500.
Glenarm Street between 15th and 16th will be closed in anticipation of the huge crowd expected to gather on Thursday.
H was founded in Sweden in 1947 and the brand can now be found in 41 countries.
