Ellenbrook Central in Perth’s northeast will undergo a $63 million expansion featuring a brand-new Kmart and an additional 20 retailers. Already home to major players such as Aldi, Best & Less, Big W, Coles and Woolworths, the 11,000sqm expansion will bring the centre’s total offer to more than 120 retailers and brands. Centre manager Mike Barrington said: “For 15 years, Ellenbrook Central has been a focal part of the Perth’s northeast growth corridor.” He said customer
stomers were looking forward to the improvements, particularly the new Kmart.
Ellenbrook Central is in one of the fastest growing areas in Perth’s northeast corridor with a population that is forecast to grow by 3.5 per cent per annum over the next 10 years.
With construction commencing this month, the expansion will create an estimated 500 jobs, including 120 jobs through construction and 380 new ongoing retail, hospitality and services jobs for the local economy.
More than 320 new rooftop car spaces topped with solar generating shades will also be built for a total of some 2300 car spaces on completion.
