A Nike Unite store is set to open this Spring at the Waterford Lakes Town Center in Orlando, FL, reports the Orlando Sentinel. The 15,000-square-foot store is scheduled to open in a part of a former Barnes & Noble store.
Nike introduced the Nike Unite concept in November 2020 as its fourth store format with Nike House of Innovation, Nike Rise and Nike Live. At that time, Nike Unite was described by the company as a “community centerpiece connected by sport” focused on hiring locally, local partnerships and design elements that celebrate local landmarks and hometown athletes.
In Central Florida, Nike has Nike Factory Store locations at Orlando International Premium Outlets, Winter Garden Village, Orlando Vineland Premium Outlets, Lake Buena Vista, in Celebration, and at the Tanger Outlets in Daytona Beach. Nike Clearance Stores are located off International Drive in Orlando and in Kissimmee.
