Queensbay Mall

Queensbay Mall is a shopping mall within George Town in the Malaysian state of Penang. Located at the suburb of Bayan Lepas, the mall was opened to the public in 2006. It covers a gross built-up area of 2500000 ft2 and contains over 400 shop lots spread out over five floors, attracting several established international brands. Its main anchor tenant is AEON and a Golden Screen Cinema complex is housed within its top floor. The mall has basement parking and multilevel parking lot for shoppers.

Since its opening in 2006, Queensbay Mall has become one of the major retail centres in Penang, competing directly against more established shopping malls within the state like Gurney Plaza. Notably, both Queensbay Mall and Gurney Plaza are managed by CapitaMalls Asia, a subsidiary of the Singapore-based CapitaLand.

The location of Queensbay Mall was previously an abandoned site of the Bayan Bay Mall Project. It was developed by Bayan Bay Development Sdn Bhd, a joint venture 70% owned by Anson Perdana Bhd and 30% by Penang Development Corporation. When Anson Perdana Bhd fell into financial distress in 1998 following the 1997 Asian financial crisis and became defunct, the project was only 60% completed. CP Group led by executive chairman Tan Chew Piau intervened in 2003 and revived the project in June 2005, which got its present name.

Retail Outlets
The mall consists of five storeys and 879,930 sq ft of net lettable area, the largest of all shopping malls in Penang. With over 400 shop lots, it has attracted numerous well-known international brands to set up outlets within. The brands in Queensbay Mall include the nation's famous book store Popular, fashion names such as Gap, British India, Guess, Timberland, Giordano, Body Glove and Levi's, and the home furnishing brand Harvey Norman.

In addition, several restaurants, cafes and food stalls can be found inside Queensbay Mall, including Starbucks, Kenny Rogers Roasters, Nando's, Häagen-Dazs and Bee Cheng Hiang.
