With its exceptional design, Mega Mall is one of the most beautiful and attractively decorated of the Erbil malls. It is located in Pirmam Street very close to the city center and its location makes it ideal for a day out combining a visit to the old traditional part of Erbil and shopping at one of the trendiest places in the Kurdish capital.
Mega Mall was built by the Mega Mall Company which was established in 2009 and belongs to Rekan Group, the prestigious giant of construction and investments in the Kurdistan Region. Mega Mall opened its doors in spring 2014 and aspires to have an impact on the growing Erbil retail market by bringing in the most upscale international brands in a modern, welcoming atmosphere.
Because of the stability and security of the Kurdistan Region, a large number of shopping malls have been built not only in the fast-growing capital, Erbil, but also in the other two Kurdish governorates, Sulaymaniyah and Duhok. The reason all these malls have been successful is not only because they promote fashion and new trends in entertainment and technology, but also because the Kurds are outgoing people who like to hang out with friends and family and have a good time. Shopping malls, with their many facilities, seem to be the best option for the young and old alike to spend their free time shopping, having fun, eating out or going to the cinema.
