VIDEO: Mall of Africa introduces its first humanoid

Attacq Limited, the company managing Waterfall, is celebrating the two-year milestone of its flagship development, Mall of Africa.

Mall of Africa is Waterfall’s largest investment to date, and has already achieved great success in the early stages of its existence.

The centre’s extensive offering has continued to attract consumers across the country, achieving a turnover growth of 11% year on year increase for the month of December 2017, solidifying the Mall of Africa as the chosen location for friends and family to spend quality leisure time together.

The centre has accommodated wide-ranging international and local powerhouse retailers, restaurant groups and speciality stores.

A total of sixteen new stores have come to call Mall of Africa home, which includes prestigious brands such as Michael Kors, Emporio Armani, Tommy Hilfiger and Levinson’s; trendy fashion and footwear stores Refinery, The Fix, Superdry, Hurley and Ramsey; and speciality stores like Bargain Books, Toys R Us, Babies R Us and Maverick & Jane are just a few of the new tenants housed at this exceptional establishment.

“Essentially, we want Mall of Africa to become the home of African luxury. We are inviting various world-class brands to South Africa. We aim to build mutually beneficial relationships that will positively impact the state of our economy and believe that we are well on our way to achieving that – one step at a time,” said Johann Fourie, general manager at Mall of Africa.

How you get information from mall ambassadors and guest relations officers is about to get a cherry on top because Mall of Africa has introduced Pepper, who is a humanoid that will be assisting customers through the mall with directions, recommendations when it comes to food and dining as well as movies and she will take customer complaints.
