The flagship Debenhams store was by far the biggest draw to customers that had gathered in inclement weather conditions, but with other big brands such as H&M, Next, Jack & Jones, JD Sports, Mothercare, New Look, Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, Pandoro, Schuh, Topshop, Prezzo, Waggamama, River Island, Body Shop, Tiger, Cineworld and many many more, the people of the City of Newport were very excited to say the least.
Friars Walk was officially unveiled by the First Minister of Wales - the Right Honourable Carwyn Jones AM, with other local government officers also present. Debenhams was officially opened by the renowned Welsh fashion designer Julian Macdonald.
