Spanish Footwear Brand Meermin to Open First DC-Area Location
JLL completed a new retail lease with EastBanc Inc. at 3001 M Street NW in DC’s Georgetown neighborhood, bringing Spanish footwear brand Meermin to the nation’s capital for the first time.
The 1,630-square-foot Georgetown location will mark Meermin’s fourth global storefront and second in the United States, joining its flagship New York City store in SoHo, as well as storefronts in Madrid and Paris. JLL’s Andy Corno, Thomas Jackman, and Simms Henschel represented Meermin, and Ashley Binkowski of EastBanc represented the landlord, EastBanc.
“Meermin’s decision to plant its flag in Georgetown speaks to both the enduring appeal of this corridor and the caliber of brand it continues to attract,” said Andy Corno, JLL Managing Director, Retail Brokerage.
“This location is a strategic step in our deliberate U.S. expansion, allowing us to serve the East Coast more comprehensively while positioning ourselves in a market that values both our European heritage and our value proposition,” said Meermin’s Pepe Albaladejo.
