Spring & Summer has announced plans for island-wide expansion of its illustrious apparel and fashion brand with the opening of its first store in Negombo on 2 December. The ceremonious unveiling of the new store located at 367A, Main Street, Negombo was attended by Chief Guests – Mr. and Mrs. Colin Rodrgio and the Spring & Summer family.
The boutique-style showroom is designed as a more exclusive space spread across one main floor and is located in the commercial hub of Negombo. The brand offers locals and tourists alike access to the beloved brand’s signature fashion collection, as well as new exclusive collections that are aesthetically appealing, versatile and available at an affordable price.
Spring & Summer Co-Founder Shyamalie Wijegunawardena noted, “Negombo is a highly populated area and the opening of this store today is yet another first step towards expansion island-wide. We are elated to announce to our Spring & Summer family that we are now available in Negombo just in time for the season.”
The planned island-wide mega-expansion of the Spring & Summer brand is expected to see iconic store-fronts being erected within shopping, leisure and entertainment hubs around Sri Lanka and will meet strict sustainability, quality and operational guidelines as set out by the company in their bid to expand their market share in Sri Lanka’s growing fashion and apparel market.
Spring & Summer was founded in 1995 by Daya and Shyamalie Wijegunawardena. The clothing brand, at present, has seven major outlets in Wattala, Nugegoda, Maharagama, Panadura, Colpetty, Bambalapitiya, and now Negombo. The brand is also available via an online store, with delivery island-wide. As one of Sri Lanka’s leading retail brands, Spring & Summer has 85% of its products designed and manufactured locally.
