Set to become one of the largest IKEA stores in the Middle East, the location at Oman’s Avenues Mall is expected to be completed by the first quarter of 2022.
The introduction of the IKEA store has seen Oman’s Avenues Mall undertake a number of positive changes to the overall shopping mall to accommodate the brand. New car parking spaces have been introduced to help cope with the anticipated additional footfall.
There are also additional plans in place to augment the road network around the mall to make the overall shopping experience more pleasant for customers.
Gogi George, General Manager, Development and Leasing, Lulu Group International, commented: “We are excited to be partnering with an innovative brand like IKEA. The brand’s entry into Oman Avenues Mall’s tenancy list is in line with the mall’s strategy of being responsive to changing consumer behaviours and preferences. Oman’s leading destination will grow even larger with the opening of IKEA and will welcome a host of new lifestyle experiences.”
