Property developer the Moolman Group is working on the 30,000-35,000 sqm Greenhills Mall in KwaZulu-Natal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The development, which has a proposed opening date of October 2025, is set to serve the wider Empangeni region as the dominant retail facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Scenic Empangeni is located in the hilly countryside of the King Cetshwayo District, surrounded by luscious sugar cane and green farmlands. It is but a stone\u2019s throw to KwaZulu-Natal\u2019s major economic hubs,” the Moolman group said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The location of Greenhills Mall has been carefully planned to ensure easy access: centrally located on the R102, just off the N2 and John Ross Highway [R34], which is the main intersection of Empangeni. Located 3.5 kilometres from the CBD and within proximity to higher-end neighbourhoods, this is the ideal location for attracting the full spectrum of shoppers.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The developer said there is a need for a centralised shopping centre in Empangeni that caters to the middle and affluent markets and aspirational consumers in its catchment area. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
