The Londoner Macao’s Shoppes at Londoner triumphs at Real Estate Asia Awards 2024

The award-winning mall in The Londoner Macao recognised with Retail Development of the Year - Macau for blending British elegance with luxury retail.

Sands Resorts Macao has once again demonstrated its prowess in the luxury retail sector with Shoppes at Londoner clinching the Retail Development of the Year - Macau title at the prestigious Real Estate Asia Awards 2024. This accolade highlights the exceptional qualities of Shoppes at Londoner in The Londoner Macao - part of Sands Resorts Macao, an integrated resort city that also includes The Venetian Macao and The Parisian Macao.

Located within a three-hour flight from an estimated one billion people, Sands Resorts Macao offers an unparalleled array of facilities, including over 12,500 hotel rooms and suites, more than 150 dining establishments, 2.2 million square feet of retail malls, 1.7 million square feet of MICE space, four theatres, two arenas, and some of the largest casinos in the world. Central to this empire of luxury is Sands Shoppes Macao. This includes Shoppes at Londoner, which is renowned for its expansive 612,000 square feet of retail space dedicated to more than 150 high-end boutiques and British heritage brands.

Shoppes at Londoner captures the essence of classic British luxury. From its air-conditioned footbridges linking it to Shoppes at Venetian, Shoppes at Parisian, and Shoppes at Four Seasons, to its British-themed interiors, the shopping experience is designed to impress. It is at the heart of The Londoner Macao, which stands out for its architectural grandeur reminiscent of London's iconic landmarks and its innovative retail and entertainment offerings.

The transformation into The Londoner Macao began in 2019 with a massive $2 billion investment. Despite the challenges posed by economic uncertainties, the ambitious project continued. The resort opened in phases, with each new addition enhancing its thematic allure. This included the award-winning The Londoner Hotel and its bespoke Suites by David Beckham, both testaments to its commitment to luxury and exclusivity.

The retail transformation into Shoppes at Londoner was particularly significant. Transitioning from a mass family mall to a premium shopping destination, the space now features first-to-market brands and a curated selection of lifestyle and entertainment concepts. This shift not only reflects the new positioning of the integrated resort but also aligns with evolving luxury market demands.

2023 marked a triumphant year for Shoppes at Londoner. Following the lifting of border restrictions, the mall witnessed a 13% increase in sales compared to its previous best in 2019. The Londoner Macao's occupancy soared to nearly 90%, mirroring pre-pandemic levels. High-profile events and concerts at The Londoner Arena, along with fully booked flagship restaurants, underscored the resort's appeal as a premier lifestyle and entertainment hub.

The success story of Shoppes at Londoner and Sands Resorts Macao is a compelling narrative of resilience, innovation, and strategic transformation. It underscores the ability of the retail sector to adapt and thrive even in challenging times. With such a remarkable year behind them, Sands Resorts Macao looks poised to continue its legacy of excellence, making Shoppes at Londoner a beacon of luxury retail in Macao and beyond.
