GrandWest Casino and Entertainment World is set to expand its footprint with the introduction of the R600 million GrandWest Mall, a premium retail centre that will add 60 new stores to the area.
Construction of the 22 000m² shopping centre is scheduled to begin in September 2025 with the official opening planned for March 2027.
The GrandWest Mall will be directly connected to the GrandWest Casino complex, combining retail convenience with the precinct’s entertainment offering.
Key features of the mall include:
- Two major supermarket anchors
- Two pharmacies
- A variety of fashion and athleisure boutiques
- Health and beauty services
- Banking facilities
- A new range of dining options
Local investment and urban renewal
GrandWest General Manager Mervyn Naidoo confirmed that the group has already invested in local infrastructure, including contributions to the Jakes Gerwel Drive upgrade, but pointed out that a dedicated retail centre has long been missing.
“With GrandWest attracting over 16 000 daily visitors, a full-scale mall is a logical next step,” said Naidoo.
Once completed, GrandWest Mall is expected to become a community-focused retail anchor, complementing the precinct’s round-the-clock entertainment and providing new employment and commercial opportunities in Cape Town’s northern suburbs.
