Retail development company McCormick Property Development (MPD) has broken ground on Mamelodi Square, a rural shopping centre in Mamelodi, Pretoria, Gauteng, in South Africa.

Said to be the firm’s 71st development, the Mamelodi Square will be a single level enclosed mall and will cover an area of 16,000km2.

The Mamelodi Square is being built on a site that was previously utilised as a bus depot for the Public Utility Transport Corporation (PUTCO).

The site is located directly off the main arterial of Tsamaya Road in Mamelodi, Gauteng.

Construction of the mall is planned to complete in approximately 15 months with opening scheduled in the final quarter of 2022.

MPD managing director Jason McCormick said: “One of our primary objectives as developers has always been ‘community first’ and Mamelodi Square is no different.
