The Clementi Mall (Chinese 金文泰广场)is a shopping mall[2] in Clementi, Singapore, at Clementi Town Centre. It is a six-storey retail development totaling approximately 191,000 square feet of retail space, which includes a basement shopping level and a basement carpark. It was built on the site of the old Clementi bus interchange.

History

To facilitate construction works for the integrated hub, Clementi Bus Interchange was moved to a temporary site next to its original location in 2009.

It opened for business in January 2011,[3] with the grand official opening ceremony on 21 May 2011 officiated by the 7th President of Singapore, Tony Tan. The mall is owned by Paragon Reit, and allows the use of eCapitaVouchers.[4] Above the mall is Clementi Towers, the first HDB project to be co-located within a shopping mall and bus interchange.[5]

The mall hosts 135 retail outlets including 16 restaurants and cafes. Anchor tenants include Best Denki, Uniqlo, Miniso and NTUC FairPrice Finest. Tenants that have since closed down do include BHG (replaced by Uniqlo), Cotton On (replaced by Switch+), Rubi Shoes (replaced by Skechers) and Typo (replaced by Vivian & Sean).

The Clementi Public Library is located in the mall, as is the office of the West Coast Town Council.[6] The branch office of Singapore Post, previously located at Block 443, is also located at Level 5.[7] [8]

Transport connections

The Clementi Bus Interchange has direct access to the mall and the existing Clementi MRT station is linked directly to the mall at Level 3.[9]
