Green Plaza Mall, situated in Smouha district of Alexandria, Egypt, on 14th of May Road, is an open-air shopping center built in 2002 with a gross leasable area of 40,000 square meters over two retail levels, adjacent to a Hilton Hotel. It hosts around 350 stores, including anchors like VOX Cinemas, Carrefour hypermarket, and a children arcade, with a tenant mix emphasizing retail (clothing, accessories, beauty), dining (11 restaurants, food court, 10 cafeterias), and entertainment options.

The property offers 1,000 parking spaces, high public transport access, and is 10 minutes from Alexandria International Airport and 10 km from Bibliotheca Alexandrina. Annual footfall reaches 2.5 million visitors, averaging 120 minutes dwell time and 25% conversion rate, though post-COVID declines of 20-50% persist. Vacancy rate is 8% (92% occupancy), with 2,000 sqm available; average rent stands at 800 EGP per square meter monthly, yielding 5,000 EGP sales per square meter.

Catchment area of 5 km radius serves 300,000 middle-class residents (median age 25, household income 4,500 USD). As Alexandrias largest mall and top 10 in Egypt, it serves a 5 million population market but faces saturation.

Leasing advantages include 3-5 year flexible terms, diverse mix, and anchor proximity boosting traffic, yet drawbacks encompass aging infrastructure, e-commerce rivalry, and competition from San Stefano Mall, risking non-anchor performance.

Insights

Demographics and Footfall

Primary catchment within 5 km radius includes 300,000 middle-class family residents, median age 25 years, household size 3.5, 25% tertiary education, median income 4,500 USD, unemployment 8%. Annual retail spending per capita is 1,200 USD (150 USD apparel, 800 USD groceries). Footfall totals 2.5 million yearly, with 50-60% female visitors drawn to anchors like cinema and hypermarket; post-COVID, traffic dropped 20-50%, averaging 120 minutes dwell and 25% conversion, supporting family retail but highlighting recovery needs.

Occupancy and Rent Levels

Occupancy at 92% with 8% vacancy (2,000 sqm available), ground floor stronger (30% retention) than first floor (32%). Tenant mix: 350 stores in retail, dining, entertainment; anchors include Hilton, VOX, hypermarket. Average rent 800 EGP/sqm/month, sales 5,000 EGP/sqm; flexible 3-5 year leases. High rents elevate costs, but anchor proximity aids metrics; post-pandemic, cafeterias near full, yet overall vacancies rose from pre-COVID 27%, advising strategic positioning for tenants.

Competition and Risks

Competes with 3 malls (San Stefano, Zahran, Kirosiez) and traditional markets in saturated Alexandria (5+ million pop), plus high e-commerce (72% internet). Open-air design differentiates, but aging 2002 infrastructure, poor upper-floor visibility, and safety perceptions deter traffic, especially females. Market risks: economic pressures on small tenants, category weaknesses in non-anchors, retail crime (2/1,000 visitors). Strengths in location and diversity offset, but e-commerce shifts challenge physical retail viability.
