The Millcreek Mall has announced plans to open a new store.

Body Central, a women’s clothing store, is expected to be open for business by mid-November.

The new 4,300-square-foot store will be located in the Sears concourse of the mall.

Officials of the Youngstown-based Cafaro Co., which owns the mall, described Body Central as a store that specializes in new fashion trends and basic favorites at value prices. Styles range from feminine chic to hip and casual.

The store is part of Body Shop of America Inc., a chain of 180 stores that was founded in Florida in 1973.
