Veestraat

The Veestraat shopping centre offers the unique combination of large retail units and prime high street frontage. It is located in the centre of Helmond, a mid-sized town not far from the southern city of Eindhoven. As a commuter hub, the city has profited from the economic success of Eindhoven, which has also driven growth in Helmond. The tenants of the Veestraat shopping centre include key international fashion retailers such as H&M and The Sting, which draw shoppers from the surrounding towns. In 2004, the two-level shopping centre was refurbished to establish a modern and efficient lay-out and introduce a new overall concept to improve competitiveness. Apart from retail, the local council has offices on the ground floor.
