The Protea Glen Mall is a shopping mall in Protea Glen, in Soweto, Gauteng Province, South Africa, which opened in September 2012
Built at a cost of approximately R360-380 million, the mall is located at the intersection of R558 and Protea Boulevard in the centre of Protea Glen, and has over 90 tenants.
Background
Mike Nkuna, chairman of developer Masingita Group, first conceived of placing a mall in Protea Glen in 2005, as residents had been traveling to Lenasia for their shopping. It is the first mall located in the Johannesburg suburb, which has only been developed since the 1990s. It has been the sixth mall to open in Soweto. Locally, it is considered notable for having both rival supermarket retailers Pick n Pay and Shoprite among its tenants.
