Mall of Travancore: A One-Stop-Destination for Retail, Food and Entertainment

Located in the heart of Trivandrum, Mall of Travancore is an unrivalled destination for shopping, dining, and entertainment for consumers of all ages in the city and around. Developed by Malabar Developers, it is the first shopping mall of the city which is a very popular iconic landmark. Aside from this, Mall of Travancore – which spans over 6.5 lakh sq. ft, comprising 6 floors, including parking and premium retail space – is the first green mall of the region.

“We have had a major role in acclimatising the people of Trivandrum to the mall culture. While retail, food, and entertainment are major draws of most malls, we have given a fourth dimension to the mall which helps lure consumers – intriguing architecture and a beautiful ambience along with a green wall, which is a vertical garden of approximately 10,000 sq. ft. These striking features of the mall help draw in more visitors,” says MP Ahammed, Chairman, Malabar Group.

Being the only mall in the radius of 80 kms, the place attracts footfalls from all nearby catchment areas, which is an estimated population of 8 million people.

“Positioned right in front of the International Airport on the National Highway, we are in close proximity to multi-specialty hospitals, railway stations, the city’s IT hub (Technopark, which is one of India largest IT parks), as well as tourist destinations like Kovalam,” Ahammed explains.
