Monday, 24 August 2020. Canal Walk was voted as one of the coolest shopping malls in South Africa at the Sunday Times's annual Gen Next Awards for 2020. The Sunday Times Gen Next survey has established itself as the leading barometer of what South African youths find on-trend and aspirational, and delivers insights that are valued by brand managers, advertising, and marketing professionals.

In line with Hyprop's vision to deliver safe spaces where people can connect and belong, Canal Walk certainly ticks all the boxes. We are very proud of the Canal Walk team placing in the top 5 shopping malls in the country and the only shopping mall to achieve this in the Western Cape.

As a Super Regional Mall Canal Walk offers 400 stores with the foremost brands in cutting edge stores pushing the envelope in design and experience on every level.

Most brands voted for by the Gen Next panel are available in the centre ensuring a visit to Canal Walk is a one-stop shopping experience that tantalizes all our customers' senses. Whether shopping for the latest Apple product at the iconic iStore to the latest sneakers and fashion favourites.

More exciting news is that the first Starbucks store in the Western Cape will open its doors at Canal Walk in November this year.
