The first standalone Pandora location in Ocala is currently under construction at the Paddock Mall, with plans to open later this fall.
Pandora is currently being built out next to Yankee Candle at the Paddock Mall, which is located at 3100 SW College Road in Ocala.
According to a sign outside of the establishment, the new store is opening in “Autumn 2024” and is currently hiring at all positions. Anyone interested in working at the new location may apply by visiting Pandora Careers online.
Last month, Ocala-News.com was the first to report that the new Pandora was under construction at the mall. The new facility takes over a space formerly occupied by Perfekta, a Colombian shapewear store that moved into a different space earlier this year.
Pandora was founded in 1982 in Denmark and launched its famous charm bracelet concept in 2000. Since then, the brand has expanded worldwide with 900 concept stores and over 10,000 points of sale across 70 countries.
There are around a dozen stores in the Paddock Mall that sell jewelry, according to the company’s directory. That includes Reeds Jewelers, which opened in 2021, Kay Jewelers, Zales, and Treasure Fine Jewelers.
Another jewelry store at the mall is currently being built out in the space formerly occupied by Go Green CBD, which moved to a different location within the mall earlier this year.
Outside of jewelers, multiple other national brands have opened stores at the Paddock Mall over the past year, including Popeyes, which opened during the first week of August, MINISO, a Chinese lifestyle brand that opened in May, and Torrid, a plus-size women’s apparel brand that opened late last year.
