Various activities such as face painting, stilt walkers, cartoon characters, competitions and a treasure hunt were presented to the community in attendance.

“We are glad to inaugurate our fourth mall in Dubai today, following the huge success our other malls have witnessed, and which helped increased investment and shopping opportunities in a framework of social shopping experience, which was highly commended by the public,” Lootah said. “We have been keen to introduce shopping centres with a different concept, which aims to strengthen social interaction and offer recreation and services in a distinguished way, in line with instructions from His Highness Shaikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, to offer distinguished services that fulfill individual requirements in a modern way,” he added.

Lootah said he was expecting a huge visitor turnout as soon as the shopping centre was opened.

Covering an area of 19,727 sqft, the new outlet includes a number of shops such as Lulu Express, Al Ansari Exchange, Saba Palace Restaurant, Galadari Driving Institute and others.

SouqExtra! also plans to commence the construction of five new community centers by September 2012 to cater for growing needs of communities for retail and services in the UAE, with an focus on Dubai, Sharjah and Ajman.
