Several major retailers have picked the burgeoning Prasada shopping complex in the West Valley to open new stores in metro Phoenix, according to Scottsdale-based developer SimonCRE.

Seattle-based fashion retailer Nordstrom Inc. (NYSE: JWN) is planning to open a 26,000-square-foot Nordstrom Rack, the brand’s discount outlet, at the Prasada North center in Surprise.

“Their presence is set to further elevate the West Valley by offering exciting fashion options that cater to the needs of our growing community,” said Josh Simon, CEO of SimonCRE in an Aug. 20 statement.

This will be the first Nordstrom Rack in the far West Valley and in Surprise. Nordstrom currently operates one Nordstrom store and 11 Nordstrom Rack stores in Arizona, representing nearly 1,300 jobs statewide.

Other retailers at Prasada North include Old Navy, which has signed on for nearly 13,000 square feet, and shoe store DSW, which will open in a 16,500-square-foot space.

Prasada North will also be home to a new Sierra Trading Post, a spokesperson for the retailer confirmed on Aug. 20. The company, which focuses on off-price outdoor apparel and products, doesn’t currently have any stores operating in Arizona.

A building permit application was submitted to the city of Surprise in July for an 18,890-square-foot Sierra Trading Post.
