We want to reduce the risk faced by our visitors when they are exposed to new people each time they shop or gather at our premises. Therefore, we felt the urge to upgrade the malls’ facilities to offer a conducive environment for our patrons to have a pleasant experience as they spend quality time with their loved ones at our Malls.”
