Delivering a speech during the opening ceremony of the mall in Arbil, Salih said the region has good relations with Turkey and will work to develop them further. The mall is a good sign of improved relations, he said, adding: “This is a joint work of art of Turkey and the region. Several Turkish brands will be sold in the mall, and the architectural plan of the building was drawn up by Turkish architects, who did a phenomenal job.”

The HEWA Group constructed and heavily invested in the mall, the only shopping center in the region. Arbil Chamber of Commerce Chairman Dara Jalil Khayat, speaking during the opening, said the commercial importance of the region has been steadily increasing and that the mall will ease the lives of locals.

The Majidi Mall is situated on 130,000 square meters of land. Its parking lot can accommodate 2,500 vehicles.
