Roma Outlet Village opens at the end of October. 100 million invested

Opening at the end of October - in time for Black Friday and Christmas shopping - Roma Outlet Village, the new retail project developed in the north of the capital by Arcus Real Estate, a company of Stilo Immobiliare Finanziaria, a real estate investment holding company that belongs to the gruppo Percassi, specialising in the marketing and management of real estate projects for premium retail and outlets. With a total investment of around 100 million euro, the project is the result of the structural and architectural redevelopment of the former Soratte Outlet and was presented yesterday in Milan to an audience of medium-high range brands by the general manager of Arcus Real Estate, Luca Nasi.

"This is not a simple reopening," Nasi clarified, "but a complete rethinking of the asset, with the aim of transforming it into a new destination dedicated to shopping and leisure, capable of intercepting a diversified public, from citizens to international tourists in the capital. Located along the A1 motorway, at the Ponzano Romano exit, Roma Outlet Village is about 30 minutes from Rome North.

"The project," Nasi added, "is part of a potential pool of over 6.5 million people, in addition to the significant national and international tourist flows to the capital, which in 2026 are estimated at over 23 million arrivals per year.

The restyling programme - by the firm De8 Architetti - envisages a first phase of work, scheduled for completion in the next few months, will involve 21 thousand square metres and will lead to the opening of about 90 shops by October 2026, with the prospect of subsequently developing a second phase that will complete the project with a further 60 shops. When fully operational, the Village will host about 150 shops on over 32 thousand square metres of rentable area, with the creation of about 800 new jobs when fully operational between retail, services and management activities, including direct and induced employment. In parallel with the work, more than 65% of the space has already been allocated to a mix of premium brands in the fashion, beauty, lifestyle and sportswear segments, flanked by a wide range of international and local food & beverage offerings.

"We believe that this operation," said Mirco Andreani, vice president Finance & Operations South East Hub of PvH Group, one of the leading fashion groups at a global level, with a portfolio that includes brands such as Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger, "will allow us to strengthen our presence in the territory and intercept new customer basins, while respecting the highest quality and operational standards.
The main projects managed by Arcus Real Estate include Sicilia Outlet Village, which has over 170 shops in Catania, and Turin Outlet (140 shops). These assets will now be joined by Roma Outlet Village, while in the full-price segment stands out Oriocenter, which has 300 shops after the latest expansion.
