Peru. The city of Lima is home to the largest number of shopping centers in Peru, but none of them has the dimensions of the Mall del Sur, of 35 thousand m2. The shopping center that has as anchor stores Saga Falabella, Tottus, Paris, Ripley and H & M, is located between the districts of Santiago de Surco and San Juan de Miraflores. It is expected to meet the demand of more than 200 million people.
The Wong Group decided to build the largest shopping center in Lima with an investment of US$200 million. The mall includes 6 levels of 350 commercial premises, 4 department stores, expomotor, hypermarket, financial center, restaurant square, entertainment area, gym, educational institute, multiplex, among others. As well as two levels of parking lots that could reach four according to demand.
"The air conditioning of the commercial areas has 1,840 tons of cooling in cold water. Thanks to the use of handling units that treat the renewal air, reducing its humidity with the use of absorption wheels, it was possible to reduce by 20% the thermal load of the common areas and, therefore, their energy consumption. In addition, the basement extraction system not only removes the carbon monoxide gases emitted by vehicles, but also the smoke in case of a fire, as required by the new regulations, "says Carlos Castaño, General Manager of Serviparamo Peru.
Air Conditioning Market in Peru: The air conditioning market in the commercial and corporate sector in Peru will move around US$100 million. "Peru represents 25% of our total turnover. This year, we expect to grow 30%, billing US$ 9 million. In addition, we want to venture into the hotel sector, which is being reactivated, especially in the interior of the country, in Cusco, Trujillo and Piura, "says Castaño.
In Peru, the trade sector is expected to regain its dynamism and grow 4.1% in 2016, according to the projection of the Institute of Economics and Business Development (IEDEP) of the Chamber of Commerce of Lima (CCL). This increase in the growth rate of the second most dynamic activity in the country would be driven by the entry of 10 shopping centers, four of them located in provinces.
"The retail sector represents 80% of our turnover in Serviparamo Peru. Among our main clients in the retail sector in Peru are: Corporación E.W., Mall Aventura Plaza, Parque Arauco, Saga Falabella, Sodimac, Tottus, Promart, Plaza Vea, Cine Planet, Metro, Maestro, Zara, Bodytech, Chuck & Cheese, "says Castaño.
