The Mall of the South recently hosted a successful Mother’s Day pop-up market from April 24 to 26, welcoming visitors between 09:00 and 19:00 each day.
The market offered a variety of beautiful gifts, handmade items and tasty treats, giving shoppers the opportunity to find thoughtful presents for the special women in their lives. The event created a lively and enjoyable shopping environment, with many visitors supporting local traders.
The initiative aimed to uplift small and medium-sized businesses by providing them with a platform to showcase their products. Zaza from Legacy Markets and SOJO Helping Hands Foundation was among those involved in organising and supporting the vendors, helping to bring together a diverse selection of stalls.
Shoppers responded positively to the event, appreciating the opportunity to explore unique, locally made goods while supporting the growth of small businesses. The Mall of the South continues to support local entrepreneurs and create engaging retail experiences for the community.
