Further to this there are also a number of Chinese malls along the Kafue Road, such as Fly Huang and China Mall. A number of successful retail warehouses are situated in the area, tenanted by the likes of Jumbo, Builders Warehouse and Orca.

The Cairo Road area is a lower-end retailing destination with a larger presence of local retailers in shopping malls such as: Southgate Shopping Centre, Downtown Shopping Complex, Cairo Mall and Society Business Park. Levy Mall, is NAPSAs 27,000m2 retail scheme, situated behind Cairo Road. Carousel Shopping Centre is also located in proximity, further down the Kafue Road.

In addition to the above, there are a large number of individual retail shops in the area, as well as many informal retailers, creating a lower-end high street along Cairo Road and surrounding areas.

Roma is dramatically under-supplied with formal retailing, with exception to the offering at Foxdale Court (2,600m2). This may be as a result of the current catchment being served by the extensive options close to the Great East Road node.

The airport junction, in close proximity to Kenneth Kaunda International Airport, has in the last few years become a formal retail hub, with the opening of Waterfalls Mall (7,000m2) and Garden City Mall (8,000m2). Upon the opening of the Airport’s new terminal, a further shopping mall is to be developed there.

Twin Palms Mall (7,500m2) in Ibex Hill is anchored by a Shoprite.

Further to the above there are a number of other retail malls scattered across Lusaka, including Novare Great North, PHI Mall, Matero Mall, Spar Mall (Mumbwa Road), and Tafika in Kanyama. In Long Acres, the Public Service Pensions Fund (PSPF) is developing the Long Acres Mall, which will deliver a further 14,000m2 and is due to open in April 2019.
