Four thousand Bicolanos will soon find themselves employed with the opening of the SM City Legazpi on Friday, September 14.
At 88,000 square meters, the mall will be the biggest in the Bicol region, after the SM City Naga in Camarines Sur.
“This new lifestyle destination in Bicolandia will elevate the malling experience of both the locals and tourists with offerings from top local and global brands,” SM Prime President Jeffrey C. Lim said in a statement.
The mall will contain more than 150 stores, 922 carpark slots, and six cinemas, a huge investment for Legazpi City, according to Mayor Noel Rosal.
The main highlight of the mall is the balcony with the view of the Mayon Volcano where tourists can have their photographs taken.
“The mall will feature green architecture, accentuated by a vast glass-walled SM Food Hall that overlooks the splendor of Mayon Volcano, where mall goers get to enjoy crave-worthy food choices,” said the SM Prime Holdings, Inc.
