Vaal Mall has been instrumental in retaining spend in the Vaal Triangle area that was previously directed elsewhere . The design of the 50,000m 2 regional shopping centre was guided by a brief to use natural elements from the area . MDS Architecture rose to the challenge , drawing on its vast experience in retail developments to evoke the sense of the flowing Vaal River in an industrial heartland .
Launched in April 2006 , the fully let Vaal Mall provides a convenient shopping choice for consumers in the Vaal Triangle .
The single level retail centre is anchored by Pick n Pay at one end and Game at the other , with Woolworths and Edgars in between . The 135 fashion and retail stores are complemented by a food court offering both fast food and restaurant areas as well as three free standing restaurants fronting onto the busy Barrage Road . Parking is provided for over 3,000 cars . Whereas shoppers in the area were travelling long distances to do their shopping , they now have an exciting shopping destination on their doorstep with a myriad choice of retail outlets .
The curved mall runs the full length of the centre giving the shopper a completely new experience and focus on each shop as they move along its length
