for residents of Celia and the New Administrative Capital.
Omar Hisham Talaat
expressed his pleasure at the continued development of the partnership with
Majid Al Futtaim Retail, which began in 2018 with the opening of the first
Carrefour in Madinaty at Open Air Mall, followed by Carrefour Al Rehab in Avenue
Mall Al Rehab in 2019, and the second Madinaty branch at All Seasons Park in
2022. He emphasized that the Celia Carrefour reflects TMG’s commitment to
partnering with global brands to provide high-quality retail services across
its projects and meet the growing occupancy rates in Celia.
He added: “The opening
of Carrefour marks the first step in a series of upcoming launches for
international restaurants and stores in The Village, the vibrant heart of
Celia. The Village will host dozens of top global retail and entertainment
brands, in addition to medical and administrative centers, a sports club,
cinema complexes, bowling alleys, all with scenic views of the central lake,
renowned restaurants, and an open-air theater.”
The launch was
celebrated with a major concert by mega-star Rami Sabry on Thursday evening,
attended by thousands of fans who enthusiastically sang along to his most
popular songs in a lively and joyful atmosphere.
Celia is the largest
fully serviced private-sector project in the New Administrative Capital,
covering 500 acres in a prime location at the heart of the Green River. The
project is continuously developing across all aspects of life and features a
wide range of commercial, administrative, medical, sports, entertainment, and transport
services, making Celia the first truly vibrant residential community in the New
Administrative Capital.
Mohamed Khafaga,
Regional Director of Majid Al Futtaim Retail in Egypt, said: “The opening of
the new Carrefour store is a key step in Majid Al Futtaim’s expansion strategy
in Egypt. It reflects a successful partnership with TMG, which began with
Madinaty and continues today with the new store in Celia, marking the second
Carrefour store in the New Administrative Capital.”
He added: “The
expansion aims to strengthen Majid Al Futtaim’s presence in strategic locations
experiencing promising urban growth, while providing a comprehensive shopping
experience for customers. As a trusted partner of the Egyptian government in
the retail sector, Majid Al Futtaim continues to create real value for the
Egyptian community by providing sustainable jobs and supporting local
suppliers, striving to make a tangible and positive impact as an integral part
of Egyptian society.”
