Exciting developments are underway at Desert Ridge Marketplace, as the shopping centers prepare to welcome several in-demand retailers and restaurants to their respective properties this fall.
“Bringing new retailers, dining establishments and service providers helps refresh our offerings while enhancing our customers’ shopping and dining experiences,” said Denise Hart, Vice President of Marketing for Vestar. “We continue to deliver fun and exciting events and experiences at our centers, including opportunities for kids to enjoy our splash pads and meet their favorite characters, and for adults to enjoy free live music every Friday and Saturday evening.”
This fall, Desert Ridge Marketplace will be home for lifestyle and wellness brands Amazing Lash Studio, The Joint, and The Beauty District as well as Kay Jewelers. Additionally, the center has seen an upswing in the demand for fresh, natural foods. As such, MidiCi: The Neapolitan Pizza Company, which is a novel, first-to-market pizza parlor, and Nekter Juice Bar will join the recently-opened Chipotle Mexican Grill at the center. A Korean barbecue restaurant called Sizzle, from the same owners of Nori Sushi, also will satiate cravings for Asian-inspired dishes.
“Busy consumers want conveniences,” said Hart. “Desert Ridge Marketplace brings all of your shopping, dining and entertainment needs to one place.”
This year, Desert Ridge Marketplace celebrates its 15th anniversary, bringing new lifestyle and entertainment experiences to shoppers.
“The magic behind our center is that we’re constantly evolving and innovating to deliver new experiences that shoppers are craving – whether it’s incorporating healthier dining options, responding to customers’ desires for specialty retailers, or creating a hub where they can reconnect with friends and neighbors,” said Hart. “Seeing ourselves as an indispensable community resource first and a shopping center second has led us to the success we’re experiencing.”
