The last five years have not been kind for shop­ping malls around the world.

Lo­cal­ly, two of the coun­try’s bet­ter known malls, Long Cir­cu­lar Mall and Trinci­ty Mall, were list­ed for sale with the lat­ter be­ing sold for $505 mil­lion to a con­sor­tium of re­al es­tate de­vel­op­ers—John­ny Aboud, An­tho­ny Ra­hael, and con­trac­tors Kall­Co and Fides Ltd.

How­ev­er, the C3 Cen­tre in San Fer­nan­do, owned by JT Al­lum and Com­pa­ny (JTA), is one shop­ping com­plex that has man­aged to buck the trend.
