Fashion retailer Mango looks to be eyeing a move into an Overgate Shopping Centre unit formerly occupied by Frankie and Benny’s. A Spanish company, believed to be Mango, has seeking permission to carry out £500,000 worth of work at the vacant premises. It has lain empty since Franky and Benny’s closed its doors in March.
The unit is currently boarded up with a sign saying “new store coming soon”. Spanish fast-fashion company Mango was founded in 1984 and has over 60 stores across the UK. Potential plans for a Dundee store come as the company recently opened new shops in Glasgow and Edinburgh.
Meanwhile, plans to transform an empty unit on Dock Street into a private health clinic are progressing. An application has been lodged on behalf of Tayside Complete Health to allow them to carry out internal alterations at 45 – 46 Dock Street. According to their website, the company provide services including spinal surgery, dental work, cosmetic treatments and vaccinations.
The work is valued at £45,000. A sign on the front of the premises says the health clinic is “opening soon”. Dundee could be set for more electric vehicle charging points as plans are lodged for a Lochee car park.
The application is seeking permission to install four rapid chargers and three fast chargers together with ancillary electrical equipment to serve 14 EV charging bays. The proposed site is a car park north of Lochee High Street. The developer behind the Balgillo Heights housing development .
