Hanna Andersson, a clothing retailer specializing in high-quality and durable outfits and pajamas for children, officially opened in Garden City Center on Friday, Nov. 18. Prior to the opening, hundreds of people were in line to visit the store and receive a free gift. This is the first Hannah Andersson store in Rhode Island.
Cranston Mayor Allan Fung was on hand for a ribbon cutting at the new store, located at 5 Hillside Road. The first 500 customers were given a pair of free long johns.
Hanna Andersson is a household name for many families with young children thanks to their 100 percent organic cotton clothes that stand up to playtime, school time and everything in between.
