Developer Modon Properties has awarded a tender for a retail strip to form part of one of the biggest residential communities being built in Abu Dhabi.
Modon said the Retail Strip Mall project in North Riyadh City will include seven restaurants, 14 stores, and a supermarket, a development company mandated by the Abu Dhabi government.
It is scheduled for completion in August 2020.
The supermarket in North Riyadh City, formerly known as South Shamkha, will be operated by Lulu Group International, Modon added.
Ahmad Al Hosani, project director at Modon, said: “The completion of the supermarket and the awarding of the tender for the retail strip mall project highlight the steady, on-schedule progress being made at Riyadh City.
“Modon is working tirelessly to develop infrastructure and public facilities in Riyadh City, with the aim of building a modern, integrated community that is in line with the vision of our nation’s wise leadership.”
Upon completion, North Riyadh City will be among the largest residential communities in Abu Dhabi, housing over 200,000 residents.
The development encompasses approximately 8,000 hectares, equivalent to 85 percent of the land area of Abu Dhabi island. It will also feature parks, schools, shops, mosques and medical and community centres.
