This state-of-the-art mall is designed to give a world-class shopping experience and is positioned as a preferred shopping destinatio­n.

On March 23, at 3pm, Chief Minister of Kerala, India Pinarayi Vijayan will dedicate the Mall of Travancore to the public.

The genesis of setting up a mall under Malabar Group was born in the year 2005. For this, Malabar Group representa­tives had visited over 1,000 malls in India and abroad to learn and get a hands-on experience in the functionin­g of malls. With this regards, a detailed marketing study was conducted in Kerala. Based on these studies, it was decided to set up a mall in Trivandrum district. In 2006, Malabar Group had started the process of acquiring seven acres of land in Enjakkal near Thiruvanan­thapuram Internatio­nal Airport. The land acquisitio­n was completed by buying plots measuring from four cents to 2 acres from 27 different landlords. The management had decided to go green and to have a complete eco-friendly and naturefrie­ndly constructi­on. The height of the mall was limited to three floors since the property is adjacent to Thiruvanan­thapuram Internatio­nal Airport. On November 27, 2014, the then Chief Minister Oommen Chandy laid the foundation stone of the mall.

Spread over 6.5 lakh sq. ft in three floors, there is a large collection of world-class branded items to offer. Along with shopping, there are facilities for entertainm­ent within the mall, both for kids and grownups. A hypermarke­t offering products that fits the requiremen­ts of all kinds of people who can select products as per their choice, a vast jewellery showroom to satisfy ornament lovers, electronic­s & home appliances showroom, lifestyle products, gaming zone, food plaza, seven multiplex theatres from Carnival Group and other entertainm­ent facilities makes the mall a true shopping destinatio­n.
