Shah Alam’s largest shopping and leisure destination, Setia City Mall, is celebrating its tenth anniversary this July with exciting festivities and sensational prizes up for grabs.
Located in the southern corridor of Setia Alam, Setia City Mall is a joint venture between S P Setia Berhad and Lendlease managed fund – Asian Retail Investment Fund (ARIF). Since its inception in 2012, the mall has attracted not only the Setia Alam community but also proven to be the mall of choice for residents in the Klang Valley.
The mall recently completed its expansion works and now boasts 1.18 million square feet of retail space housing approximately 17 major retailers and over 280 local and international retailers, creating a rich, multi-layered experience for visitors. The expansion enhanced tenant mix and facilities, providing patrons with a wider range of fashion, dining, leisure, and entertainment offers to create an all-new fresh experience.
“Setia Alam township has matured tremendously since its launch in 2004. Today it is 22,000 households strong with approximately 90,000 residents. The mall has also grown in tandem with the lifestyle demands of the enlarged communities, and we believe this milestone is just one of the many that the mall will achieve in the years to come.”
“Consumer behaviour has changed due to the COVID-19 pandemic past two years. This has resulted in mall operators and retailers having to re-strategise their business models, change the structures, re-assess the mix of their tenants, and incorporate online services to drive their business into the new normal. This means moving forward, malls will need to provide a truly omnichannel experience. Brick-and-mortar outlets will need to adopt elements of the online experience besides the physical stores taking cognisance of the adoption of artificial intelligence, robotics, virtual reality and augmented reality as part of their business sustainability,” said Datuk Tan Hon Lim, Executive Vice President of S P Setia Berhad Group.
