Afi Europe has announced several changes in its shopping center project in Ploiesti Mall, scheduled to open on October 1, 2013. The total investment that requires the current project phase amounts to €40m, €5 m more than originally anticipated.
The total leasable area is now 29,000 sqm, 3,000 sqm more than the first drawings called for. The change has been made in order to accommodate the retailer Cora, which asked for more space. It will now occupy nearly the entire ground floor, which will cover an area of 13,000 sqm, 8,000 sqm more than was planned initially. Other services such as bank branches and telecom outlets will also be present there.
