Plans are currently in the pipeline to construct a new €60million mall close to the GSZ Stadium in Larnaca which will be unveiled next year.
The new ‘METROPOLIS Mall@Larnaca’ will be situated on a 33,000sqm plot – belonging to the Bishopric of Kition – opposite the GSZ Stadium car park and behind the Larnaca National Guard Boot Camp (KEN) and will be constructed by Acsion Ltd – a property development and management company in South Africa.
According to the management company, The METROPOLIS Mall@Larnaca, will be a fully enclosed, single-level, climate controlled Shopping and Lifestyle Centre with a GLA (gross lettable area) of 33,000sqm, servicing the greater Larnaca area and surrounding villages.
“Focused on offering customers the convenience of having all their needs met in one location, it will cater for families, kids, teens and adults alike,” read a statement by the company.
“With a full retail offering, including a supermarket, major fashion retailers, branded and independent shops, services, cinemas, entertainment, modern restaurants and cafes, kids play areas and free WiFi, it will be Larnaca’s ultimate lifestyle and shopping metropolis! With excellent access, location and visibility, METROPOLIS Mall@Larnaca is well suited to cater for the entire catchment area within a 30km radius.”
Construction is expected to get underway during the last half of 2017, with a projected opening date by the end of 2018. The process of application for Planning Permits has already commenced with the company expecting the permits to be granted by July 2017
The company claims that the new mall promises “to become the shopping and lifestyle destination of choice in Cyprus. With over 100 shops and 1,400 parking bays, it will be home to all the leading international and local fashion brands and the ultimate shopping and leisure destination for groceries, fashion, homeware, shoes, accessories, services, restaurants and entertainment.”
