A variety of food options

Walking around the 1.1 million square feet mall is sure to tire you out.

Eco-friendly heart & hub

The Toppen Shopping Mall is described as having a “heart” as the mall is eco-friendly.

The rooftops of the mall will have multiple solar panels to harness solar energy for the malls use. With the “Intelligent Building Management System”, the mall prevents energy wastage by adjusting lighting and power.

Rainwater will also be collected to be reused in the mall.

30 mins drive from JB customs

The best part about the mall is that it’s only a 30-minute car journey from JB customs.
