Roots To Open In June At MarketStreet

MarketStreet is getting a new store this June after Roots announced its plan to expand into Lynnfield.

Roots is an iconic lifestyle brand with a rich Canadian heritage. It announced its plans Friday to add two U.S. retail locations, one in Lynnfield, the other at the Natick Mall.

“These two new Roots locations mark an important step in executing against our current U.S. expansion plan where we are targeting 10 to 14 new retail locations by the end of 2019,” said Jim Gabel, President and Chief Executive Officer of Roots. “Our inclusive lifestyle brand, with legendary feeling apparel, leather goods, footwear and accessories, is an excellent fit for the U.S., particularly in New England, and the mid-Atlantic and Midwest regions."

The Lynnfield store will be an almost 5,000 square foot store at MarketStreet, which is the North Shore's largest open-air shopping destination spanning nearly 300,000 square feet and home to many flagship retail brands. Established in 1973, Roots is an iconic lifestyle brand with a rich Canadian heritage and portfolio of premium apparel, leather goods, accessories and footwear.
