Ivo Nikkolo to open at the Mall of Tripla

Mall of Tripla will be opened in autumn 2019, but more than 80% of the retail properties have already been leased.

The shopping centre will house plenty of niche boutiques and a Market Zoo where small-scale and local producers will be presented in a cosy setting reminiscent of an indoor market.

“Niche refers to a narrower specialisation of a product area where the offering is otherwise limited. Niche products and boutiques attract customers who are very aware of quality. Small-scale and local producers are often specialised niche operators, too,” says Pirjo Aalto, YIT Commercial Development Director.

Mall of Tripla will be presented in a big way at the MAPIC convention in Cannes in November 2019.

“Mall of Tripla has only great retail locations, so the remaining retail premises will surely be of interest to international actors. Pasila truly is the new urban centre of our capital, which is seen as the most important retail and encounter location of the future,” continues Pirjo Aalto.

Ivo Nikkolo, an expert in unique and confident style

The first Ivo Nikkolo boutique was opened in 1994 along a street called Suur-Karja in Tallinn, Estonia. The mid-1990s were a time when Estonian consumers, who were used to not having much during the Soviet era, started to value high-quality fashion creations more.

Ivo Nikkolo’s unique design has always spoken to confident women. Ivo Nikkolo offers original design, combining attention to detail and playfulness with a truly elegant classical look.

“Tripla is a strong new development in Helsinki metropolitan area. Our designer brand Ivo Nikkolo has been popular with our Finnish customers for a long time now, and so it's a good next step to open a stand-alone store in Tripla”, says Maire Milder, Baltika Group  Branding and Retail Concept Director.

Today’s Ivo Nikkolo collections are designed by Britta Laumets and Frida Jõe, who continue the brand’s original handwriting. The world’s leading fashion and trend portal WSGN has repeatedly ranked Ivo Nikkolo’s image campaign among the best in the world.

“Ivo Nikkolo is an esteemed and bright brand that will fit the spirit of Mall of Tripla perfectly. We only have the right operators in the best locations,” states Aalto.
