The Phnom Penh Megamall Due in Q4 2020

on Feb, 19 2020

CBRE has announced that The Phnom Penh Megamall opening has been postponed until the fourth quarter of 2020. CBRE Cambodia, who is the leasing agent for the mall, said via their Managing Director Ann Sothida, that The Phnom Penh Megamall was delayed due to delays in interior design. The mall was due to open its doors to the public in Q3 2020. In a press release in February 2020, Sothida said that that the latest postponement was unrelated to the market situation. “The delay has nothing to do with market issues. Companies have expressed their interest and have leased about 70-80 per cent of the building’s retail space, with the ninth floor entirely leased out.”

The Phnom Penh Megamall is now due to open in Q4 2020
