Centrale, Croydon a new opportunity
Centrale has over 300 brands in just one roof. Situated over three floors this mall combines fashion with high street retailing in a relaxing and refreshing environment. There is the Upper Mall, North End Mall,
I have been a devoted shopper to Bluewater for too many years I care to remember but I am impressed by the scale and the shop fit of the Centrale Malls. It has been a while, okay a few years, since I last visited Croydon for shopping but I must say I was impressed with the diversity of shops available offering choice at the consumer market level at the lower price, mid and high niche markets.
Since the opening of Centrale, just over two years ago, the capacity for the consumer has rapidly increased, and there is an outstanding amount of choice available within Croydon. With high streets gradually becoming more homogenous each year, maybe Croydon is set to develop something more exciting for its clientele with the wide variation and mix of shops and boutiques, high street retailers and eclectic independents.
There is a fantastic amount of space and extravagance as you enter the mall’s main entrance, clearly signposted and assessable to everyone – great for the ‘mum pushchair afternoon stroll’ and caters well for people with disabilities too.. The mall is rather like Dr Who’s tardis! From the outside the appearance is grand and inviting but you would not imagine it contained such a vast amount of space.
‘With 800,000 square feet of fabulous shopping featuring some of the country’s leading fashion and lifestyle stores and a brand new 950 space shoppers’ car park, Centrale is the new face of shopping in Croydon!’

That is a huge amount of room for a multiplicity of stores, to name but a few:
Elle, French Connection, H&M, Jane Norman, La Senza, Mango, Miss Selfridge, Panasonic, Sony Galleria, Sunglass Hut, Virgin Ware and Zara are just a few of the reasons why Croydon has become a true fashion hotspot offering the very best in beauty, fashion, accessories, home and food.

With all this available in the Centrale mall there is still more as directly opposite there is the ‘Whitgift’ shopping centre and the general high street. It’s a shoppers dream come true…….I could just imagine the LFF boutique doing well in such a wonderful location!
Centrale’s has a special Christmas lights evening on Thursday 24h November to launce the festive season. There is live music and entertainment available with speciality acts for customers to enjoy.
