Leading Egyptian real estate developer Talaat Moustafa Group (TMG) has signed a partnership with AZADEA Group to bring 13 new brands to the Open Air Mall at Madinaty City, Egypt Today reported.
Formerly a suburb, Madinaty is an upscale, greener, less crowded area in Egypt. It was built in 2006 by Talaat Mostafa Group. It is located 33 kilometers on Cairo-Suez Road.
The mall has reportedly been operational in a “soft launch” mode since 2019 with the opening of two of its eight buildings.
The deal will grant AZADEA Group stores an area close to 10,000 square meters of land in Madinaty as it is projected to commence full-fledged operations in spring 2022.
It will further enhance the mall’s retail offering, providing shoppers with AZADEA Group’s lineup of internationally renowned brands.
The brands include Zara, Zara Home, Oysho, Pull & Bear, KIKO Milano, Sunglass Hut, Stradivarius, Lefties, Virgin Megastore, Massimo Dutti, Bershka, PAUL and The Butcher Shop and Grill.
