Summit Mall

Dillard’s and Macy’s anchoring Summit Mall in Fairlawn, Ohio, the Akron suburb in Summit County from which the property takes its name, give the 774,000 square foot regional mall a two-anchor department store comparison-shopping format for the Akron, Fairlawn, Copley, and broader Summit and Medina County household that accesses the Medina Road corridor as the primary enclosed regional mall on the western side of the greater Akron trade area. Apple serves the technology retail category. Arhaus, the Richmond Heights, Ohio-founded premium furniture and home décor brand, gives the property a premium home furnishings identity that the Summit County professional household uses for major furniture purchases at the Ohio-based manufacturer and retailer whose American manufacturing identity the Midwest consumer values for its regional provenance.

Carhartt, the Dearborn, Michigan-founded workwear brand whose duck canvas work jackets have been adopted by both the Ohio industrial workforce and the national streetwear culture that repurposed the brand’s utilitarian identity, gives the property a fashion identity serving both the Summit County construction worker and the trend-conscious young consumer. CLE Clothing Co. gives the property a Cleveland-identity apparel brand the Akron-area consumer accesses as a civic expression of the regional sports and urban culture. Grandpa’s Cheesebarn, the Ashland, Ohio-founded specialty food and gifts retailer, gives the property an Ohio food identity whose aged cheese, smoked meats, and regional specialty food products the Northeast Ohio consumer purchases as gifts and provisions.

Dave’s Hot Chicken, Condado Tacos, Dewey’s Pizza, and First Watch Daytime Café give the property a dining floor whose Ohio-regional restaurant brands serve the casual and fast-casual occasions alongside the national chain formats. Altar’d State, Athleta, Buckle, American Eagle, J. Crew, JoS. A. Bank, and DTLR cover the accessible and contemporary fashion floor. lululemon serves the premium activewear segment. Sephora serves the prestige beauty category. JD Sports, Foot Locker, and Zumiez serve the athletic footwear and action sports floor. The property’s commercial position is the Akron-area regional mall at the Fairlawn Medina Road corridor: a Dillard’s-Macy’s format whose Carhartt workwear identity, CLE Clothing civic brand, and Ohio-regional casual dining floor serves the Summit County household.
