GENERAL NEWS Heinrich Malan addressed the crowd and thanked everyone who was involved. He especially thanked the professional team and the main contractor (Red East Zambia) for their great work in the difficult and remote area of Chirundu.

The 4 700m² mall brings much needed formal shopping to Chirundu and has changed the face of Chirundu. Tenanting has been difficult, but now that the mall is officially open, it is sure to bring new tenants. The current tenants occupy 73% of the lettable area. ISSUE 34 - JUNE 2018 7
