2010 is, of course, the year that H&M take over Israel. The women of Israel await with oh-so-baited-breath the opening of H&M’s first stores in Israel (in Tel Aviv’s Azrieli Mall, the Malcha Mall in Jerusalem and Haifa’s Grand Canyon), scheduled for March. Guys, you have been warned…
The pic below is from the opening day of the Lausanne branch (Switzerland) last year. Expect a similar experience this March!

The Swedish fashion retailer (officially known as H & M Hennes & Mauritz AB) look set to hit it big in the Holy Land, which is always nice to see. Worldwide culture icons, which H&M seems to have become over the last few years, often arrive a little late in Israel, but it’s great to see them invest in three big shopping malls. In fact, they’ve also announced a fourth shop, in Kfar Saba’s new, sparkly G shopping mall, which is scheduled to open in September 2010. We say “Good Luck” to ’em.
