Somerset Mall Just Got Even Bigger: 26 New Stores to Explore
If you thought Somerset Mall was already packed with shopping, dining and entertainment options, think again. Helderberg's favourite mall has just completed a major 5,500m² expansion, bringing 26 amazing new stores to the region, many for the very first time. That’s right, you no longer need to make the trip into Cape Town for the brands you’ve been dreaming of.
A Shopping Experience that’s Truly Local… But Global Too
From fashion and sportswear to toys and lifestyle brands, the new stores have something for everyone:
- Safari Collection (a division of Safari Outdoor) opens its first South African store right here.
- Napapijri arrives with its debut Western Cape location in early 2026.
- Skechers, Lego, Bella Luna, New Balance, Burnt, Curve Gear, Nicci Boutique and JD Sports are all open now, giving families and shoppers local access to brands that were previously only available downtown.
Whether you’re hunting for the latest trainers, unique kids’ toys or a standout wardrobe piece, your next shopping spree just got a whole lot closer to home.
More than Just Stores: A Boost for the Community
This expansion isn’t only good news for shoppers, it’s also great for the Helderberg economy.
- Over 1,200 construction jobs were created.
- The new stores now provide 400 permanent positions, adding to the mall’s total of around 3,500 employees.
- Local suppliers, service providers and small businesses benefit from the ripple effect too.
“It’s about more than shopping,” says Nicholas Oliphant, Somerset Mall General Manager. “We’ve listened to what our community wants and we’ve delivered.”
Somerset Mall: The Go-To Destination for Families and Fun
With 206 stores now open, Somerset Mall isn’t just keeping up with Helderberg's growth, it’s leading it. And there’s even more to look forward to in Phase Two, launching in July 2026, which will feature the Freedom Interactive Park for even more family fun.
Whether you’re browsing, dining or just enjoying a weekend outing with the kids, Somerset Mall is your destination for:
- Premium local and international brands.
- A family-friendly shopping experience.
