The new Viva Home retail mall located at Jalan Loke Yew, Kuala Lumpur, will open its doors for business at the end of 2010. Recently launched to retailers, Viva Home is aimed to be a one-stop centre for home products and related services. There will also be a range of food and beverage, leisure and entertainment outlets, as well as a hypermarket.

Mr. Bernard Bong, managing director of Viva Mall Sdn Bhd said, “Viva Home is our latest venture after Central Market and Kenanga Wholesale City and it further cements our commitment to developing innovative, retail properties in the Klang Valley. We ventured in after extensive research and market survey where we discovered an opportunity in the home furniture and furnishing sector for a destination which provides a comprehensive offer for home shopping. With people constantly upgrading, replenishing, renovating, revamping and re-doing their homes, there was no one place they could go to where they could find everything they needed under one roof.”

Bong added that consumers will find it easier to compare price, availability, products and services, as everything will be zoned and organised in one place.

Developed by Viva Mall Sdn Bhd, a company under Kha Seng Corporation Sdn Bhd, Viva Home will have a net lettable area of 660,000 sq ft for lease. Lot sizes range from 300 to 2,000 sq ft while mini anchors range up to 15,000 sq ft. Apart from the retail mall, Phase 2 of the development will feature a boutique and business-class hotel above it.
