ECE announced that it will take over management and leasing of Park Vera Shopping Center in Ankara, which is currently under construction.
Construction of Park Vera started in 2012. The shopping center will accommodate approx. 100 specialist shops as well as a food court with numerous cafés and restaurants on a leasable area of 40,000 m² on four levels.
The opening is scheduled for spring 2014. 2,500 parking spaces will be available to the visitors of the center. The investor is Baskent A.S. The owners of Baskent A.S. are also shareholders of A1 Grup and therefore investors of Acity Shopping Center. ECE had only recently taken over management of this center as well.
Park Vera Shopping Center is located in the northwest of Ankara, in the rapidly expanding residential area of Batıkent-Yenimahalle. Its excellent location directly adjacent to the arterial road "Istanbul Yolu" provides an easy access for visitors. Furthermore, the center is well-connected to public transportation. The catchment area comprises approximately 3.4 million inhabitants in total.
Andreas Hohlmann, General Manager of ECE Türkiye: “Following the management takeover of Acity, we are pleased that the investors entrusted ECE Türkiye for the management and lease out of the Park Vera Shopping Center as well. With our longstanding know-how in the Turkish market, we are fully confident that we will be able to position both shopping centers successfully for our customers and retailers.”
