Today Premier Helen Zille officially opened the Table Bay Mall.
Located along the province’s West Coast, Table Bay Mall, has already created 5 000 jobs during construction and an estimated 8 000 additional jobs are to be created (including tenants and service providers), with an investment of over R1-billion by Zenprop Property Holdings.
Premier Zille said: “The Western Cape Government welcomes the significant investment by Zenprop. Table Bay Mall will contribute to job creation and driving economic growth in the West Coast and surrounding regions. The West Coast is fast becoming an important economic hub. Our government continues to work to create a conducive environment which enables businesses to operate freely, with as little red tape as possible. We encourage everyone to access goods and services from the Table Bay Mall. By working together, we can continue to drive much-needed economic growth.”
Premier Zille also highlighted the economic activity along the West Coast which would benefit the province’s economy.
“We anticipate the imminent designation of Atlantis as a Special Economic Zone (SEZ). We are also encouraged by the fact that there is a further R1.8 billion in investment in the pipeline, and hundreds of jobs already created in the proposed SEZ,” said Premier Zille.
The latest 65 000 m ² regional shopping centre development will now commence trading and includes major retailers such as Pick n Pay, Checkers, H&M, Woolworths, Clicks and Dis-Chem.
