Pandora opening new store at Lakeside Village on July 19

Pandora, the Denmark-based jewelry brand regarded for its hand-finished pieces, has signed a lease with Continental Realty Corporation (CRC) for 1,653 square feet of space in Lakeside Village, and plans to open a new store at the 460,000 square foot super-regional lifestyle center in Lakeland, Florida on July 19. CRC, a Baltimore-based real estate investment and management company active in 11 states, acquired the asset last summer.

Pandora, recognized as the world’s largest jewelry brand, offers a highly-differentiated selection of charms, bracelets, rings, necklaces, and earrings. Committed to sustainability, the company plans to utilize only recycled silver and gold materials in its jewelry production by 2025, in an effort to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain. Pandora jewelry is sold in more than 100 countries.

Located at 1479 Town Center Drive just east of Tampa, Lakeside Village is anchored by Belk, CMX Lakeside Village 18 & IMAX, and Books-A-Million, and is shadow-anchored by Kohl’s. The center includes more than 70 tenants offering a diverse mix of uses, including entertainment, fashion, medical/healthcare, fitness, food, and beverages as well as 46,000 square feet of office space. Additional tenants include Bath & Body Works, Orangetheory Fitness, Pure Barre, K-Pot, Famous Footwear, Loft and Grillsmith.

"Pandora is an iconic brand with an extremely wide and loyal customer following, and attracting this global retailer to Lakeside Village furthers our mission of enhancing the tenant mix and improving the shopping experience,” stated Kristina O’Keefe, Vice President of the CRC’s Commercial Division. “Pandora’s selection of necklaces, rings, earrings, lab grown diamonds and engravable jewelry aligns perfectly with the lifestyle center’s positioning as a leader in offering the latest and most popular fashion and accessory trends.”
