Ekurhuleni Executive Mayor, Counsellor Mondli Gungubele, attended the Investec Property event to mark the start of the building process.
The centre will be anchored by Pick 'n Pay and Shoprite. Other tenants include the Edcon Group, Truworths Group, Foschini Group, Ackermans, Pep, Morkels, Clicks, Barnetts and Ellerines, with Nedbank, Capitec Bank and African Bank. A centrally located food court will connect the main shopping and recreational areas.
Darryl Mayers, head of Investec Property's retail division, said, "The company continues to focus on connecting communities to major retailers in areas where there is strong demand from both the community and retailers. We are grateful to Mogadi Properties, the joint leasing agents, who organised the sod-turning ceremony and found local businesses to provide catering and other services to ensure the event was a success."
The Ekurhuleni Municipality was instrumental in assisting Investec Property to get the project off the ground. Other dignitaries from the Ekurhuleni Municipality who attended the event include the HOD of Planning and Economic Development, Oupa Nkaone and director Ivan Kudungure.
