The mall boasts two large, state-of-the-art anchor tenants – Woolworths and Checkers.
More than 90% of the mall’s 120 stores are let out already and are filled with both well-known national and sought-after international brands to satisfy the most discerning of shoppers.
Premier Dube-Ncube added, the mall was a massive investment for the province.
“The opening of the Oceans Mall occurs as the province is gearing up for the festive season which will see throngs of visitors come to KZN to spend their hard-earned income. Not only is this investment a huge vote of confidence in the economy, but it means that our province will now have some of the high-end retail shops that were not available here before,” she said.
