CAMPUS OUTFITTERS LOCATES IN DAL-RICH VILLAGE 


RICHARDSON— Campus Outfitters, the nation’s fastest-growing school uniform and accessories company, has leased 6,990 square feet of retail space at Dal-Rich Village, a community shopping center located at the southeast corner of Coit Road and Belt Line Road, for the relocation of its only store in Texas.

Tony Albanese and David Zoller with the Commercial Retail Division of The Weitzman Group handled negotiations. 

Campus Outfitters, headquartered in College Park, Maryland, provides uniforms, accessories and textbooks to more than 300 K-12 schools through their retail stores and ecommerce website.  The retailer operates stores in Indiana, Maryland, Michigan, New York and Ohio, in addition to Texas.  

Dal-Rich recently underwent a major renovation that provided raised façade elements that increased visibility and tenant identification, as well as Dal-Rich’s sense of place. In addition, the facade received new crown molding, exposed beams and Spanish tile, raised pop-up fascia elements, awnings and decorative lighting. The center’s paint scheme was upgraded with multiple warm Mediterranean tones. 

.As a result of its location, combined with the renovation, Dal-Rich has seen a spate of recent leasing, including the Campus Outfitters, a new Dollar Tree and new concepts such as Big Shucks, a seafood restaurant, and Andrea’s Restaurant, a popular dining spot that relocated to Dal-Rich from elsewhere in Richardson. 

In addition to its strong retail line-up and its long history in the Richardson market, Dal-Rich made history as the first shopping center in the Metroplex to feature a clock tower.
