To date, i12 Katong, which fronts the intersection of East Coast Road and Joo Chiat Road, is about 50% pre-leased, with anchor tenants such as CS Fresh, Golden Village, United World Preschool and Wine Connection, which were old tenants of the mall before it was closed for renovations. New names at the mall include Climb Asia, Guzman Y Gomez, Kindermusik With Love Studios, Malaysia Boleh, PS Café, Signature Koi, We are Sultans and Scoop Wholefoods.
“At Keppel Land, our vision is to be a leader in redefining urban spaces for a sustainable future. In line with this, i12 Katong will be a showcase of new retail concepts developed through a design-thinking process which will add new dimensions beyond the conventional role of malls and alleviate physical space constraints,” says Keith Low, head of retail at Keppel Land.
“This is key in our strategy as we continue to participate in the transformation of retail in Singapore as well as in our other key markets of China and Vietnam,” he adds.
