Prince Mall - Sihanoukville
The mall will offer 50,000sqm retail space over five floors and the developers say its the first mixed-use shopping centre in Preah Sihanouk province. According to the mall's Facebook page, it also goes by the name, Prince Golden Bay. Prince Huan You CEO Zhang Rui Jun said "The soft launch has received support and attention from the administration of Preah Sihanouk province and relevant institutions. This is the first step and we strongly hope that the provincial administration as well as the Royal Government continue to pay attention and support the company’s operations." Prince Mall includes department stores, retail shops, supermarkets, food & beverage outlets, and entertainment. Some of the retail and F&B outlets at the mall include the Prince Supermarket, KFC, Levis, Starbucks, Legend Cinema, Adidas, Nike, Samsonite and many more. The Khmer Times said of the mall that it "also features intellectual facilities throughout such as intelligent parking charging system, intelligent network system, intelligent air conditioning system, intelligent fire protection system, intelligent security system and intelligent power system for ultimate comfort and a parking area to accommodate more than 1200 vehicles." There are not many malls in Sihanoukville, especially compared to the capital of Phnom Penh which has over a dozen malls and mega-malls with more being constructed. FURI Times Square opened in late 2019 and was the first mall in Sihanoukville. The four-storey mixed-use space has 13,000 square metres of leasing space.
