18 October 2024

Global shoe brand Rieker – which specialises in fashionable and functional footwear – is opening a new store at Sanderson Arcade.

The popular footwear retailer is launching their latest venture at the popular Morpeth shopping centre on Monday, November 11.  

The development has also resulted in the creation of 5 new members of staff:- a Manager, Assistant Manager, and 3 part-time staff.

Customers are in for a real treat as the shop is putting on an opening offer in their first week. Between November 12 and 15, visitors will receive 15% off all Rieker-branded footwear and handbags.   

Paul Isaacs, Rieker’s Retail Operations Manager, said: “I am excited to bring our brand to Morpeth and Northumberland.

“We fell in love with the centre and the town when we visited to view the unit, and we are looking forward to sharing our full range of footwear over our three brands - Rieker (comfort and style), R Rieker (sports and style) and Remonte, which is proud to introduce the Elizabeth Hurley collaboration along with its core ranges.

“We look forward to getting to know and serve the Morpeth community, and becoming a part of the Sanderson Arcade family.”

Rieker is steeped in history having been founded in the Black Forest region of southern Germany 150 years ago in 1874 and has been family owned for five generations.

The retailer designs and produces almost all of its range, which includes fashion shoes and footwear for outdoor activities for men and women.

The company also created its own footwear technology (Rieker Antistress) to help improve shoe support, flexibility and durability.

The store will be open Monday to Saturday, 9am to 5.30pm, and Sundays between 10.30am and 4.30pm.

Rieker is the latest high-profile brand to join the retail line-up at Sanderson Arcade following the opening of stores by Oliver Bonas, The White Company and The Works earlier this year.

The centre is also home to a host of other premium brands including Mint Velvet, Phase Eight and Hobbs.

Lottie Thompson, Centre Manager at Sanderson Arcade, said: “It has been a really busy year and we have welcomed a number of high-profile retailers to the centre, with Rieker being the latest.

“We wish the team every success for the future and am sure our shoppers will love their footwear and accessories.”

Sanderson Arcade was developed by Yorkshire based regeneration specialists, Dransfield Properties, in 2009.

Still owned and managed by the company the team have brought a great mix of more than 40 well known high street and quality independent shops, cafes and restaurants to this part of Northumberland.
