Designer Outlet Roermond – Discount Mall in the Netherlands

The Designer Outlet Roermond is a fashion outlet mall located near the Dutch-German border in the south of the Netherlands. It is run by the McArthurGlen Group – the Roermond location has around 186 branded stores and is the largest mall in their international portfolio.

The Netherlands isn’t generally renowned for discount shopping and bargain basement prices. It’s no surprise that the Designer Outlet Roermond has become popular with those seeking branded discounts and the chance to visit stores not normally available on the local high street.

Generally, expect about 30% off the standard retail price and up to 70% off selected sale items.

The location is in the small city of Roermond in the province of Limburg. Whilst that may seem a strange choice, the catchment area includes the likes of Eindhoven and Maastricht in the Netherlands, Mönchengladbach, Düsseldorf and Cologne in Germany plus Liège, Brussels and Antwerp in Belgium.

The outdoor mall is smartly designed and features international fashion labels and brands.

This includes the likes of Adidas, Armani, BOSS, Brax, Burberry, Calvin Klein, Desigual, Diesel, Dolce & Gabbana, Espirit, G-Star Raw, Gant, Gucci, Guess, HUGO, Jack&Jones, Lacoste, Michael Kors, Nike, Polo Ralph Lauren, Prada, Puma, Samsonite, Superdry, The North Face, Tommy Hilfiger, Versace, Zegna.
