SHOPPING CENTRE UPDATE
RETAIL IS ON ITS WAY TO GLORY MALL FOOTFALL SHOWS SIGNS OF RECOVERY
It has been a long and challenging year for many, but consumer and retailer sentiments are changing due to government initiatives and the increasing number of vaccinated individuals over the past few months. People are now reemerging from lockdowns, and they are venturing out again to visit shopping malls, entertainment venues, restaurants and cafes. Mall of Dilmunia has seen an encouraging trend whereby the mall footfall numbers have been growing steadily with a month-on-month increase. The summer season has been a particularly busy time with the opening of all four entertainment zones at Funscape World WLL. Summer camps were arranged for children so that they could experience ice, sports, play and adventure in an all-inclusive package. Children were thrilled to be able to visit and enjoy entertainment and sporting activities with friends.
