Mall of Africa, southern Africa’s largest single phase shopping centre development, is set to open on 28 April 2016. This is Africa’s largest single-phase shopping mall development to date with an estimated completion value of more than R4.5 billion. The new super-regional Mall of Africa will be the heart of the ambitious Waterfall, a city developed on a scale beyond anything South Africa has known.
Over 300 shops, with seven anchor tenants and a carefully considered retail mix, will create a unique retail experience. It will provide a well-balanced variety of local and international brands, services, specialty shopping, entertainment and eateries. Flagship stores for all major South African retailers will be part of its attraction.
Earthworks for Mall of Africa began in October 2012. When it opens in April 2016, Mall of Africa will be the iconic heart of the innovative Waterfall precinct, superbly situated between Johannesburg and Pretoria. The Mall of Africa will be a visual, social and economic anchor within Waterfall.
The new ZARR5 billion landmark, developed by one of South Africa’s property developer and investor is situated in Waterfall City. Mall of Africa was also developed with visitors and tourists travelling by bus in mind. So, whether you drive, cycle, walk or make use of bus or taxi, getting to Mall of Africa is easy.
We can only hope that the grand opening will be as wow as the extravagant mall!
