Shoppers flocked in large numbers and travelled great distances to attend the grand opening of Cinnabon’s first-ever Scottish location at The Centre, Livingston, on Friday, 26 July.
Eager fans began queuing almost two hours before the store opened. Cinnabon was founded in Seattle in 1985, and has expanded to over 48 countries worldwide.
Its new Scottish branch is located in one of the country’s largest shopping centres, The Centre, Livingston, which houses over 150 shops, including Flannels, Rituals, and River Island.
Both longtime fans and newcomers journeyed from across the country to enjoy Cinnabon’s famous treats, available in various flavours such as the Classic Cinnabon with Makara cinnamon and signature frosting, ChocoBon, and Caramel PecanBon. The first customers were also treated to a special tote bag.
Patrick Robbertze, Centre Director at The Centre, Livingston, said: “The opening of the first-ever Cinnabon branch in Scotland was a huge success as people travelled from near and far and queued for up to two hours before it opened, with long queues continuing throughout the day, to get their favorite bons.
“The opening is a fantastic addition to our existing variety of great places to shop and eat at The Centre, Livingston which makes for a brilliant day out when visiting us.”
