PORT MALL to add 13,000 sq m, new wing due in 2027

PORT MALL, Moldova’s largest shopping centre, will add 13,000 square metres of leasable space. Businessman Anatolie Golea announced the expansion at the mall’s third anniversary; construction in the right wing of the building is already visible. The new area is due to open in 2027.

According to Golea, footfall is up 40% compared with the first year and sales are up 64%, with no vacant space left. The mall currently hosts more than 100 brands on 30,000 square metres. The new section will include a larger food court, a gym, relaxation areas, a conference and events centre and a second panoramic terrace.

Two further stages are planned, depending on demand. The long-term target is 100,000 square metres of retail space, four office buildings and a multi-storey car park for 2,000 cars.
