Media questions for Olive Ndebele (Menlyn)1.An outdoor market in a shopping center is unconventional, why this type of set up and why now? Not very unconventional in fact markets at shopping centers are on-trend at the moment and in true Menlyn style we would like to take an existing concept and make it impactful and truly meaningful. The pandemic has had a devastating impact on all businesses more specifically on young upcoming entrepreneurs and this is where a big brand like Menlyn Park SC can make a difference by offering small a platform to showcase their offering. Through our partnership with the sheds market, we have offered existing stall vendors an official venue for the festive period whilst their main location has remained closed for the past 8 months. this is our way or giving back to the community that serves us at a time that matters the most. 2.Who is at the center or your focus with the Menlyn Sky market and what feeling do you hope to create within this person after their experience there for a day? The sheds market will give Menlyn Park Shopping Center access to a young, upcoming audience or creatives and trendsetters, highly affluent millennials, an audience we desire to tap into in order to cater.

What does this market add to my Menlyn experience? The festive period is recognized as a key holiday celebrated by most South Africans and has over the years become an essential part or the retail and shopper social calendar. With a few people opting to not travel far this year due to the pandemic, Menlyn Park Shopping Center through the market will reposition itself as a key experience destination for the communities or Tshwane this year by:  Re-imaging the mall space by creating highly, sought-after arts, culture, tourist attraction where high volumes or visitors go to experience and buy the best or local art, music, food and design.  Re-connecting with the Tshwane community at large by providing a platform for local artists, designers, musicians, artisans and entrepreneurs to showcase their talents and goods.  Re-positioning value by showcasing the best of Tshwane at the heart or the city’s landmark-Menlyn Park Shopping Center. 4.how have you navigated Covid for your tenants and shoppers alike?

Most of us have never lived through a global pandemic before, this is a n new experience for all of us and with that said you have a choice to accept the reality or the situation and navigate through it as best as you can by listening to advise or you can choose to remain stagnant and in denial with n o results.
