UNIQLO announces the opening on April 25 of its latest large-scale store, the Okachimachi Store, in one of the major commercial and tourist districts in northeast Tokyo, known for its street markets, dining and nightlife.
The UNIQLO Okachimachi Store boasts a 2,843 m2 sales floor (one below ground, four above), and is inspired by UNIQLO's popular flagship locations, entertainment-style stores offering the latest popular UNIQLO products for men, women, kids, and babies.
The Okachimachi Store is located at the entrance to Ameya-Yokocho, a bustling open-air shopping arcade with an atmosphere of old Tokyo, popular with both local residents and overseas visitors to Japan.
The store occupies a prime location on the site of the former Yoshiike supermarket, a prominent shop in this area since 1920, and is within walking distance of the spacious and verdant Ueno Park.
The UNIQLO Okamachi Store is the latest of UNIQLO's large-scale, flagship locations in major areas of central Tokyo, on a par with the Ginza Store, the BICQLO Shinjuku East Exit Store, and the Ikebukuro Sunshine 60 Dori Store set to open in March.
