While the current inauguration was more of a soft opening, the three-story mall is expected to be fully occupied by April 2014, when it will be home to an excess of 300 shops, 95 restaurants and cafes, a 16-screen Cineplex, Egypt\u2019s first edutainment destination in the form of Kidzania indoor theme park . Anchor tenants include IKEA, whose 345,000-square-foot store is Egypt\u2019s first, Carrefour, with an 115,765-square-foot hypermarket and two department stores: Debenhams and Marks &amp; Spencer, the latter establishing its largest Egyptian location at mall.<\/p>\n<p>The shopping center will be comprised of three areas:\u00a0 Festival Center, the enclosed retail, dining and entertainment area; the Promenade, a stepped pedestrian streetscape lined with shops and cafes which connects the enclosed retail area to Festival Village, a 161,000-square-foot outdoor entertainment hub comprising\u00a0 boutiques, restaurants, cafes, nightlife venues and performance areas, such as an amphitheater and dancing fountain. Amenities at the shopping mall include parking for 6,500 and gender-specific worship areas.<\/p>\n<p>Located on Cairo\u2019s ring road, 15 minutes away from Cairo International Airport, the super-regional shopping center\u2019s catchment area includes New Cairo, Mokattam, Nasr City, Helipolis and Maadi &#8211; an area of over eight million potential customers.<\/p>\n<p>Cairo Festival City Mall is owned and developed by Al-Futtaim Group Real Estate (AFGRE), Dubai-headquartered Al Futtaim\u2019s real estate development and operations division. 5+design handled the mall\u2019s design. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/english.ahram.org.eg\/NewsContent\/3\/12\/87531\/Business\/Economy\/Cairo-Festival-City-Mall-opens-after-threeyear-del.aspx\"><i>Ahram Online<\/i><\/a>, the mall has a price tag of around $1 billion (EGP 7 billion), while the cost of the entire project is estimated to top $2.46 billion (EGP 17 billion).<\/p>\n<p>When completed, Cairo Festival City will comprise expansive residential areas including single-family homes of three-to five-bedroom villas and multi-family options such as two-to four-bedroom apartments. More than 2.15 million square feet of office space will also be created with tenants such as Procter &amp; Gamble and Allianz, while Honda and Toyota have already set up shop at Festival City\u2019s 130,000 square feet of dedicated auto showroom space. The American International School has also moved into the master-planned community, which extensively features plazas, walkways, parks and gardens.<\/p>\n<p>Two hotels are planned for the Cairo\u2019s megaproject: a business traveler oriented hotel near the office park and a 400-key luxury hotel integrated into the mall. The project has earned several accolades to date, including Best Built &amp; Future Retail Project at the 2013 Real Estate in the Middle East Awards (details <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/regions\/international\/cairo-festival-city-mall-wins-best-built-future-retail-project-in-middle-east-2\/\"><i>here<\/i><\/a><i>)<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p>AFGRE develops and operates a multimillion dollar real estate portfolio across the MENA region, including mixed-use fully integrated urban community megaprojects. AFGRE\u2019s megaproject portfolio consists of the 56-million-square-foot Dubai Festival City, the 32-milion-square-foot Cairo Festival City and Doha Festival City (details <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/regions\/international\/dohas-festival-city-a-result-of-continued-growth-in-the-middle-east\/\"><i>here<\/i><\/a>)<i>.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Al Futtaim\u2019s real estate development and operations division is set to develop Cairo Festival City Mall, Egypt\u2019s first-ever indoor-outdoor shopping center. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":1004087855,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21782,16,21742,21749],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1004087854","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-development","category-international","category-latest","category-retail"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) -
