“We have put in place stringent Covid safety protocols to ensure a safe shopping experience for our patrons. Since the easing of the lockdown, footfalls at Orion Malls have risen to around 60% of pre-covid levels with sales touching around 90 per cent of pre-pandemic. Buying trends are leaning more towards Athleisure, fashion, beauty, Electronic Goods and Fine Dining. What is encouraging is the faith that retailers have in us, given that despite the current situation, new brands are willing to set up outlets in our malls. It is also heartening that international brands are choosing Orion malls to be their gateway to India. With the easing of restrictions on cinemas and family entertainment centres, footfalls at Orion Malls are expected to touch pre-covid levels in the weeks to come.” said Sunil Munshi, AVP Operations, Orion Malls, Brigade Group.
In all, over 2 lakh square feet of space has been booked by these brands across the three Orion Malls in the city.
