Adidas in La Cañada

There are man sporting brands out there that have failed to make it or are an underlying brand to the big guns however Adidas are not one of them and have stood the test of time.

Lovers of this brand will be delighted to know that at the top of the travelators in the newer section of La Cañada there will be a shop opening soon. For those of you familiar with l Cañada´s layout, the shop is replacing the Golf US shop which moved a few doors down a while ago.

The shop specifially for Adidas promises to be a welcome addition to the few other sports shops located in the centre however with a simgle great brand the competition may find it difficult to compete.

Taking a break in La Cañada

Not a recent addition to La Cañada but one well worth metioning as Terra Sana´s Express Cafe located near the front of the shopping centre breaks up an otherwise tedious experience for many shoppers. For those of you who are avid shoppers and have not been dragged along for advice or because you are a youngster Terra Sana provide some very welcome refreshment.

Intersport have moved

For many of us fit and healthly people we rely on good sports equipment and have relied on well known suppliers of sporting goods for years. One of these is of course Intersport who were located outside the main shopping area for years.

Intersport have now relocated and are inside the shopping centre  near the main entrance of the old section on the right so do not turn around and drive out when you see their old store closed, just wonder inside the shopping centre for their great range of shopping goods.

La Cañada and a theiving scam

Just really to give you all a heads up for all of you out there who are not locals and already the gossip. The latest scam to hit La Cañada shopping centre in Marbella is thefts from cars in the underground car park. This is not general theft from cars so do not panic and continue to use your common sense placing valuable items out of site and locked in the boot. The target for this scam is shoppers who return to their car with shopping then who return to the shopping centre to continue shopping. It is rumoured that there are lookouts in the car park who have targeted shoppers in the past. The good news is that there is now a heightened state of alert in the car park now and a larger security presence, especially for the summer visitors.
That said, La Cañada has a good track record in comparison with many of the Costa´s shopping centres and with common sense and vigilance, I know all you shoppers out there will be safe and sound.

Xmas is coming in La Cañada

Well the decorations have been up for a while including the fantastic tree which is always displayed in the new area of the shopping centre. The shops are adorned with fantastic bargains and present ideas for all the family. Keep checking for more information on weekend festive displays by children from the local area.

Stagecoach will be performing on 19th December starting at 4pm, with some fantastic performances which are well worth coming along to see.

Marks & Spencers is HERE!

Slightly late news but still relavant. Marks & Spencers in La Cañada is now open you will be glad to hear. With products that seem familiar it is a home away from home and Im sure even though slightly pricier, you will all enjoy it´s arrival as M&S quality can easily out do many other products.

With a great selection of products just in time for Christmas I am sure the shop will be a hit with those who know it and those who are first timers.

Marks and Spencers - The Latest News

Reports are in that the NEW Marks and Spencers in La Cañada Marbella will be opening in November 2009, which is earlier than previous reports expected. There were rumours that the store would be one of the infamous Marks and Spencers food halls but this is not only the case and the food section will be miniture in comparison. The store will be stocking fashion, homeware and food. As with many shops the demand for items will determine what is stocked in the store.

Marks and Spencers, to many who know the store (normally British), know of the quality of their products. On a fashion note, for those women you who buy lingerie from Marks and Spencers especially those with a more natural figure the store is a welcome relief. In addition to this men who are of a larger stature too will benefit from a much better choice of clothes.

The consumer will definitely determine the future of this store and depending on popularity we could see more branches popping up along the costa.
