Adds another dominant retail center in a strong and growing Sunbelt market
GREENSBORO, N.C., December 10, 2024--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tanger® (NYSE: SKT), a leading owner and operator of outlet and open-air retail shopping destinations, has acquired The Promenade at Chenal, a 270,000-square-foot upscale, open-air lifestyle shopping center in the growing Sunbelt market of Little Rock, Arkansas. The Promenade at Chenal is Tanger’s first location in Arkansas, and its second full price, open-air lifestyle center, following Tanger’s acquisition of Bridge Street Town Centre in Huntsville, Alabama, late last year.
"We continue to execute our growth strategy with the acquisition of The Promenade at Chenal," said Stephen Yalof, President and CEO of Tanger. "We’re thrilled to add this attractive, market-dominant lifestyle destination to our portfolio and welcome several exciting new brands and restaurants – all part of the Promenade’s diverse collection of market-exclusive shopping, dining, and entertainment. We look forward to leveraging the strengths of Tanger’s leasing, operating, and marketing platform to solidify the Promenade as the state’s premier shopping experience."
Tanger acquired The Promenade at Chenal for approximately $73 million, using cash on hand and available liquidity. Management estimates the center to deliver an eight percent return during the first year, with potential for additional growth over time.
Central Arkansas’ prominent shopping, dining, entertainment, and lifestyle destination, The Promenade at Chenal offers a line-up of highly sought-after national brands such as Lululemon, Sephora, Athleta, Kendra Scott, Lovesac, and Sono Bello, as well as the state’s only Apple, Anthropologie, and Urban Outfitters stores. These are complemented by a curated roster of popular local and regional retailers, a variety of elevated and casual dining options, and an AMC IMAX Theatre.
The most populous city in Arkansas, Little Rock is home to national and global corporations like Dillard’s, L’Oréal, FIS, and Caterpillar and serves as a medical and tourism hub for the state. The Promenade at Chenal is part of an affluent master-planned community in the Chenal Valley neighborhood on the west side of Little Rock, where continued densification since 2020 has created a live-work-play dynamic that further strengthens the center’s market dominant position.
