Namibia’s largest mall is in its final construction stages
Namibia’s largest mall Grove mall in Kleine Kuppe, Windhoek, is in its final stage of construction and is now expected to open on 23 October. The mall has been constructed for one year now.
Grove Mall’s marketing manager, Corlia van Tonder, has said the delays experienced resulted from the strike by metalworkers in South Africa. The opening date had earlier been scheduled for September this year. Corlia added that the main contractor and subcontractors have been working around the clock to ensure construction ended on time.

The mall cost US$90.2 and is expected to bring revolution to the retail industry in Windhoek. It is developed by Atterbury Property Holdings (Pty) Ltd, Attacq Ltd, The Frontier Property Trust, and Demushuwa Property Developer (Pty) Ltd.
