Capita International Times Square is a super-regional shopping mall located in Tongi, Gazipur, Bangladesh, at the intersection of Dhaka-Mymensingh Highway and Tongi Station Road.

Spanning 6.5 bigha of land with a B+G+6 floor structure, it offers over 1100 retail units ranging from 135 to 10,000 square feet, positioning it as the third largest mall in Bangladesh. The mixed-use development includes a shopping mall, hotel, swimming pool, cafes, food courts, and a cineplex, catering to diverse consumer needs. In the context of Gazipur's growing industrial hub with a population exceeding 3 million in the city corporation, the mall benefits from proximity to Dhaka (about 20 km north) and upcoming Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) enhancements for improved accessibility.

Tenant mix emphasizes fashion, electronics, and food & beverage, with recent anchors like Walton's exclusive showroom opened in March 2025.

Market position is strong in the suburban retail segment, where organized retail penetration is around 10-15% compared to 30% in central Dhaka, driven by rising middle-class incomes and urbanization.

Leasing advantages include high visibility on major highways, potential footfall from local workers and commuters estimated at 10,000-15,000 daily based on similar regional malls, and competitive rent structures amid Bangladesh's commercial real estate growth projected at 2.95% CAGR through 2029. However, challenges include competition from established Dhaka malls and infrastructure dependencies like traffic congestion on access routes.

Occupancy stands at approximately 70-80% post-2025 openings, with opportunities in emerging categories like health and wellness.

Insights

Demographics and Footfall

Tongi and Gazipur feature a demographic profile dominated by working-class families and industrial workers, with median household incomes around BDT 20,000-30,000 monthly, supporting demand for affordable retail. Population density is high at over 5,000 per sq km, fueled by garment factories employing 1 million+. Daily footfall at the mall is projected at 12,000-18,000 visitors, bolstered by its location near residential areas and transport hubs, though seasonal variations occur due to factory shifts. This supports steady traffic for mid-tier retailers but may limit luxury segment performance compared to urban centers.

Competition and Market Saturation

The retail landscape in Gazipur includes competitors like East West Shopping Mall and local markets, but Capita International Times Square differentiates with its scale and amenities. Market saturation in basic categories like apparel is moderate at 60-70% occupancy across suburban malls, per regional reports, leaving room for specialized tenants. Risks include oversupply from new developments in nearby areas, potentially pressuring rents downward by 5-10% in saturated segments, while strengths lie in underserved entertainment and dining options drawing cross-regional shoppers.

Lease Terms and Operational Quality

Lease terms typically range from BDT 60-120 per sq ft monthly, with 5-10 year commitments and escalation clauses of 5-8% annually, aligned with Bangladesh's commercial norms. Operational quality is adequate with modern infrastructure including parking for 500+ vehicles and 24/7 security, though aging access roads pose challenges. Advantages include flexible unit sizes for pop-ups and escalators for multi-level access, but potential drawbacks involve higher utility costs in a humid climate and dependency on developer maintenance for common areas to sustain 85%+ tenant satisfaction rates.
