On Thursday, 23 September the fully-let Boardwalk Mall celebrated its grand opening in the Boardwalk Precinct around the landmark Boardwalk Casino and Entertainment World in Summerstrand, Nelson Mandela Bay Metro, Gqeberha, Eastern Cape.
In his official address, Eastern Cape Premier, Lubabalo Oscar Mabuyane, welcomed the investment by Emfuleni Resorts and Flanagan & Gerard. "Boardwalk has always been one of the best-identified tourist facilities in Nelson Mandela Bay, and the development of Boardwalk Mall will now enhance its popularity." The 24,000sqm Boardwalk Mall is a major development by Flanagan & Gerard Group and Emfuleni Resorts, a subsidiary of Sun International (JSE: SUI). and is managed by Spire Property Solutions, who have a long relationship with the developer of the Boardwalk Center.
Anthony Leeming, CEO of Sun International, pointed out that the mall's journey began eight years ago well before its development commenced. "We had a dream to redevelop the mall and were very fortunate to eventually find the right partners in Flanagan & Gerard. Sun International is invested in the Eastern Cape, committed to Gqeberha and proud to be partners in Boardwalk Mall - it is an amazing mall befitting the friendly city."
