retail scene
Story 12
THE Boulevard Shopping Mall, a
520,000sqf lifestyle complex that opened last December in
Sarawak, promises more retail space for the East Malaysian state
upon completion of Phase Two
come this year-end.
Managed by Boulevard Group of Companies, the investment arm of
Malaysian business conglomerate Shin Yang Sdn Bhd, the project
saw about RM100 million (US$30.9 million) invested
in Phase One, the group revealed.
Boulevard Group CEO Don Yew Hoon said that the mall will house
about 230 speciality retailers and over 20 F&B outlets,
including Kenny Rogers, Pizza Hut and KFC, alongside
hypermarkets
and department stores.
When Phase Two is ready, the mall will yield a total of
700,000sqf of retail space, with parking for more than 2,000
cars. Its entertainment facilities will include cineplexes, a
32-lane bowling centre,
a skating rink and an exhibition area. There will also be a
700-unit hotelcum-apartment addition next year.
