The mall development project was one of the biggest property investments currently underway in the city and was set to create a total of over 2,500 jobs for the community of Rustenburg and surrounding areas. 

The first phase of the Rustenburg mall was expected to be completed by April 2021. The mall is less than a kilometre from the main taxi rank.
