OLA PEMBA
The Pemba Shopping Centre features 4,000m² of retail space in
Mozambique's north-eastern port city of Pemba.
erbury has thus far developed the modern Kumasi City Mall in Ghana, the
Dunes Mall in Walvis Bay, Namibia, and recently successfully completed the
first-phase development of the USD20 million Pemba Shopping centre.
Pemba Shopping centre is anchored by a 3,500m² Shoprite supermarket, the first of its
kind in the city. OK Furniture shop and Pep store have also opened at the centre. In
addition, it features over 4,000m² of retail space in some 20 stores, incorporating a
food court which is to open in the near future. An adjacent petrol station that is to be
completed soon will add more convenience to the centre and offer more convenience.
Designed by architects Aevitas Group, the top-notch retail asset has a superb location,
generous on-grade parking in 250 bays, security and guaranteed 24/7 power including
reserve generators.
The city is renowned for its Portuguese colonial architecture. It was only
renamed Pemba at the end of the Portuguese rule in 1975.
Pemba is also perfectly placed to benefit from massive business growth as the biggest
worldwide discoveries of offshore gas in the past decade is in Mozambique's Rovuma
Basin, which is offshore from the port city. This makes the location of the shopping
centre ideal for economic growth.
It is less than 3kms from the city's airport, at the heart of the city's hotel and
hospitality industry, and ideally situated to provide tourists with a unique shopping
experience.
