ON NOVEMBER 6, MERCIALYS IS INAUGURATING CAP SACRE-CŒUR,

THE INDIAN OCEAN'S SECOND LARGEST SHOPPING CENTER

Mercialys is finalizing the major extension of its Cap Sacré-Cœur shopping center, which will be inaugurated on November 6, in the Le Port city. This project is 100% let, which highlights the site's appeal for a wide range of national and international retailers. Cap Sacré-Cœur will be a major shopping destination on Reunion, and will also be rolling out a renewed digital platform serving its visitors.

In the northwest of the island, the Cap Sacré-Cœur shopping center is ideally located at the heart of a major residential hub with 400,000 inhabitants and strong demographic growth. Served by a dense transport network, this site's effective positioning has been further improved by the renovation of all its facades based on a strong transversal identity, aligned with Mercialys' other shopping centers.

NEW IDENTITY AND COMPLETELY RETHOUGHT CENTER FOR A UNIQUE SHOPPING EXPERIENCE IN THIS REGION

The center's new identity, which has just been revealed on social media, is based on G La Galerie graphics, but has been adapted locally to effectively stand out. In addition to building the extension, Mercialys is modernizing all of the existing center, introducing new spaces for cultural activities and events, rethinking its pedestrian pathways, renovating and extending its parking facilities, and building a 550-space multistory car park with green walls.

Cap Sacré-Cœur will benefit from a powerful digital ecosystem aiming to improve the site's visibility with a multichannel approach, while also simplifying customer preparations and visits. For instance, the center's latest news, activities and events will be promoted on social media and with the site's specific tools (website and dedicated app), as well as using indoor digital screens and the island's largest outdoor digital screen.

Alongside this, Cap Sacré-Cœur is the island's first center to launch a fully digital loyalty program, "Club CAP Gagnant", making it possible to reward customer visits and purchases (discounts, gifts, exclusive services and offers, invitations, etc.). In addition, the center's teams have put together a program of events and activities throughout the year and for the various key periods to make Cap Sacré-Cœur a unique shopping and leisure destination on Reunion.

SUCCESS WITH RETAILERS ENSURING AN ATTRACTIVE MIX AND NEW CHOICES

This 9,200 sq.m extension, opening on November 6, will offer 45 new shops, including five mid-size stores, and all being already fully let. This is a groundbreaking retail mix that is ready to be discovered by the island's residents and visitors.
