Construction has begun on Madombidhza’s new shopping centre. Located near Louis Trichardt (Makado) in Limpopo, the shopping centre is expected to open in September 2024.

The shopping centre was designed by retail specialists MDS Architecture for McCormick Property Development. Madombidhza Mall is a single-level shopping centre with ample customer parking. Louis Pretorius, MDS Architecture partner, says that the Mall will serve a large catchment area.
“The prominent walkway and covered entrance are marked by two striking steel column structures in vibrant colours that seem to hold up the overhead roof. Elements of the angular structure – a play on the letter M – are duplicated along the covered walkway of the shopping centre,” says Pretorius.
The building features contemporary clean lines in a neutral colour palette, punctuated by the bright green steel structures. Lighting has been used to emphasize the V-shaped structures of the two angular steel structures at the entrance.
Located at the entrance into Madombidzha village from the town of Makhado on the main taxi and bus route from surrounding villages into Makhado town, facilities near the site include a church, public clinic and pre-school. A new traffic circle has been included at the entrance to provide easy access to Madombidhza Mall.
Anchor tenants are Shoprite and Roots. Madombidhza Mall will also have a KFC Drive thru. There are several restaurants in the food court area at the entrance to the mall with external covered seating.
