New Additions with an Asian Flair

 

Two new additions are heading to the Millcreek Mall Complex later this spring, each of them with a distinctly Asian Flavor.  While exact opening dates have not been announce, both are expected to open by June.

 

Ginza Sushi and Steak House will welcome its guests in a stand-alone, 10,600 square foot building outside the main mall, located close to Peach Street. The building is now undergoing an extensive restoration.  As its name implies, Ginza offers a huge and tempting selection of sushi and sashimi dishes, prepared with the freshest ingredients.  But it doesn’t end there.  Chefs will also serve up sizzling specialties from the hibachi grills.  The kitchen will offer taste-tempting entrees like Sesame Tuna Steak and Basil Filet Mignon, not to mention Teriyaki and Tempura favorites. There is even a children’s menu.

            “Life is for Fun.” That’s the slogan of MINISO.  This rapidly growing retailer will bring its broad selection of housewares and collectibles to a 2,800 square foot space in the Boscov’s concourse, across from Buckle.  MINISO (pronounced MINI-so) offers lifestyle products such as kitchenware, travel bags, health & beauty products, fashion accessories, small electronics, packaged food items, home storage, bathroom supplies and plush toys. The design flavor is distinctly Asian.  Since the opening of its first store in China in 2013, the company has built its flagship brand “MINISO” as a globally recognized retail brand and established a network of over 5,500 stores worldwide.

 

The Millcreek Mall Complex is located on upper Peach Street and Interstate 79 in Millcreek Township, near Erie, Pennsylvania.  It has been serving the community since 1975. The complex currently comprises more than 2 million square feet of shopping, lodging, dining and entertainment.  For more information, visit www.millcreekmall.net.  Millcreek Mall Complex is owned and managed as part of the Cafaro family of companies, based in Niles, Ohio.  To learn more about the Cafaro organization, go to www.cafarocompany.com.

Cafaro Signs Multi-Site Deal With Sierra Trading Post

 

The key to enjoying the great outdoors is being well-dressed for it.  That’s the mission of Sierra Trading Post, which will soon be opening its trademark outdoors gear locations in three properties owned and managed by Ohio-based Cafaro Company.

The first will be located at Cafaro’s Millcreek Mall in Erie, Pennsylvania.  It will comprise more than 17,000 square foot of space, with plans to open in the fall of this year.  Another 18,000 square foot store is also under construction at Kentucky Oaks Mall in Paducah.  It is scheduled to open late this year.  Simultaneously, a new, stand-alone building will be rising on the Eastwood Mall Complex in Niles, Ohio. The 24,000 square foot structure will be ready to open as the first Sierra Trading Post in northeast Ohio in late 2025.

About Sierra Trading Post
