History

The mall officially opened in October 2005.[1]

In June 2012, Lamda Development, the owners of the mall, announced that they will begin to charge parking fees from mid-February 2013.[2][3]

In 2017, Värde Partners bought a controlling stake of the Mediterranean Cosmos and planned out an extension of the mall.[4]

Facilities

It contains more than 200 retail units and facilities including an 11-screen multiplex cinema, numerous shops of fashion and electronics goods as well as cafés, restaurants, bars, a supermarket, an amphitheatre and an Orthodox church.[1]

Design

Inside the mall, roads and square have been designed-like traditional cities of Northern Greece in combination with the advantages of a modern city's center.[1]

Location

The mall is located 11 kilometres (6.8 mi) east of the city-centre and approximately 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) away from Thessaloniki Airport. It can be accessed by National Road 67, the highway connecting Thessaloniki with the southern part of Chalkidiki.[1]
