Brooks Brothers Grand Opening in Atlanta Marks Significant Milestone

 

Atlanta, GA – February 25, 2009 – The Paradies Shops, recently named “Best Airport Retailer” by Airport Revenue News for the 14th consecutive year, celebrates its 500th store opening today with the grand opening of Brooks Brothers at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL).  The Paradies Shops and Brooks Brothers both share the timeless tradition of providing quality merchandise at a fair value – with first-class customer service in mind.

 

“For the past ten years, The Paradies Shops has proudly offered this exclusive brand to airports across the country,” said Gregg Paradies, president and CEO, “and we are excited to celebrate this special occasion marking our 500th store opening – at the world’s busiest airport – with the country’s oldest and most prestigious clothing retailer.”

 

“Brooks Brothers is proud to be part of this milestone event,” said Claudio Del Vecchio, Brooks Brothers Chairman & CEO. “Our new store in ATL’s atrium represents our shared passion for excellence.”

 

The Brooks Brothers celebration coincides with the grand opening event of The Paradies Shops’ stores in ATL’s atrium, which also include Brighton Collectibles, Drugs & More featuring The AeroClinic, and The Georgia Aquarium’s “Beyond the Reef” store.  Piedmont Park Travel Mart and The New York Times Books & News are slated to open this summer.
