reliable power supply, and high-speed internet. The outdoor spaces are beautifully landscaped with
trees, fountains, and walkways, creating a pleasant environment for shoppers to enjoy.

One of the primary objectives of the Mall of Maun is to provide employment opportunities for the
residents of Maun. The project has already generated over 450 jobs, ranging from construction and
maintenance positions to managerial roles. The development also establishes a platform for local
businesses to participate in the mall's supply chain, which is expected to boost other sectors of the
economy.
In addition to providing employment opportunities, the Mall of Maun aims to attract visitors to the area.
As a popular tourist destination, the mall adds another dimension to the tourism experience in Maun.

attractions in the region.

ambitious project that is sure to have a lasting positive effect on the
area.
