Kolon Industries' fashion and lifestyle division said Tuesday it has opened the Kolon Mall Outlet Gwangju Suwan store, bringing the benefits and shopping experience of its official online mall to a physical retail space.

The store is the first brick-and-mortar location to replicate the outlet functions of Kolon Mall, the company's official online shopping platform. Located in Docheon-dong, Gwangsan-gu, Gwangju, the standalone building spans three above-ground floors and approximately 2,079 square meters. Its position along a main road ensures easy access, and a dedicated parking lot accommodating about 64 vehicles adds to customer convenience.

The store layout was designed with customer flow and comfort as top priorities. The first floor houses a brand outlet zone bringing together Kolon FnC's flagship labels — including Kolon Sport, Series, Henry Cotton, Lucky Chouette and Waac — each in its own dedicated space to streamline the shopping experience.

The second floor organizes products by category — outdoor, golf, menswear and womenswear — so customers can easily compare and choose items suited to their tastes and needs. The floor also offers Kolon Mall's repair and alteration service, accepting requests for all Kolon FnC brand products, with dedicated staff on hand to provide expert consultations.

Kolon FnC said more than 6,000 customers visited the store during the three days immediately following its opening, from Friday through Sunday, generating sales that exceeded the target by 163 percent. "We will offer a comfortable environment on par with premium shopping malls, combined with the value-for-money benefits that are the hallmark of outlet shopping," a Kolon FnC official said.
