3. Location & Accessibility: The Power of The Intersection

For international buyers analyzing the map of New Cairo, “accessibility” often translates to proximity to the 90th Street. However, local experts know that the true “hidden gems” are located on the major perpendicular axes that feed the residential zones.

Artea Mall holds a strategic corner position at the convergence of Gamal Abdel Nasser Axis and Talaat Harb Axis. These are two of the most vital arteries in the Narges and Diplomat neighborhoods, ensuring a constant stream of vehicular and pedestrian traffic.

Why this location works:

It functions as a community hub. Unlike massive destination malls that require a planned trip, Artea is positioned to serve the immediate, daily needs of the dense surrounding population and the thousands of students nearby.

Key Connectivity Metrics:

• The Educational Hub: A mere 2 minutes from the German University in Cairo (GUC) and 10 minutes from the American University in Cairo (AUC). This creates immense demand for student-focused retail and services.
• Commercial Arteries: Only 4 minutes from the bustling South 90th Street.
• Regional Access: Just 5 minutes to the Suez Road, connecting you to the New Capital and Heliopolis, and close proximity to the Ring Road for easy city-wide commuting.

4. The Developer: Mainlands Developments (A Legacy of Trust)

When buying off-plan, the developer’s track record is your primary safety net. Mainlands Developments is not a newcomer testing the waters; they are a veteran player with over 20 years of experience in the Egyptian real estate market.

5. Full Project Description: Modernity Meets Efficiency

Artea Mall is designed to be a visual landmark. Spanning an area of approximately 2,832 square meters, the project moves away from the traditional concrete block design, embracing a sleek, modern aesthetic.

Architectural Philosophy:

The facade is dominated by high-quality panoramic glass. This is not merely an aesthetic choice; it is a functional one.

1. Natural Light: The glass curtain walls flood the administrative and medical units with daylight, boosting productivity and creating a welcoming atmosphere for patients and employees.
2. Visibility: For retailers on the ground floor, the open design ensures maximum brand exposure to the heavy traffic on the facing axes.

Zoning & Layout:

The building is intelligently zoned to prevent conflict between the bustle of shoppers and the quiet required for work:

• Ground & First Floors: Dedicated to Commercial & Retail units. This area features open plazas and landscaping, encouraging visitors to linger, dine, and shop.
• Upper Floors (2nd & 3rd): Dedicated to Administrative Offices & Medical Clinics. These floors are designed with separate access points and lobbies to ensure privacy and professionalism.

6. Unit Types, Areas & Inventory

Mainlands Developments has curated the inventory of Artea Mall to cater specifically to Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), startups, and specialized clinics. The unit sizes are compact and efficient, keeping the total ticket price accessible.

1. Commercial Retail Units

• Location: Ground and First Floors.
• Starting Area: 25 sqm.
• Suitability: Perfect for cafes, pharmacies, boutique retail, or service centers serving the local residential community and nearby universities.

1. Administrative & Medical Units

• Location: Second and Third Floors.
• Starting Area: 35 sqm.
• Suitability:

• Administrative: Ideal for startups, law firms, engineering consultancies, or satellite offices.
• Medical: Designed to accommodate specialized clinics (dental, dermatology, general practice) benefiting from the residential density.

7. Facilities & Amenities: A Tech-Enabled Environment

Despite its boutique size, Artea Mall packs the infrastructure of a mega-project. The developer has integrated smart technologies to ensure smooth operations and high tenant retention.

• Smart Parking Systems: The mall features spacious, technology-driven parking areas to solve the chronic parking issues of New Cairo, ensuring easy access for visitors.
• Advanced Security: A comprehensive security matrix including 24/7 trained personnel and high-definition CCTV surveillance covering every corner of the property.
• Digital Connectivity: High-speed internet infrastructure pre-installed for all administrative and commercial units.
• Plaza & Water Features: The outdoor area features manicured landscaping and artificial lakes/water features, creating a relaxing environment for breaks or casual meetings.
• Dining Hub: A curated selection of restaurants and cafes, transforming the mall into a leisure destination.
• Medical Readiness: The medical floors are equipped with the necessary infrastructure (waste management, elevators) to support healthcare providers.
• Smart Control Systems: Automated systems for managing traffic flow and services within the mall to ensure efficiency.
• Business Support: Meeting rooms and conference facilities are available, adding value for administrative tenants.
• Maintenance: Regular, professional maintenance services to keep the facility in pristine condition.

8. Pricing & Payment Plans: An Investment Within Reach

One of Artea Mall’s strongest selling points is its pricing strategy. In a market where commercial prices are skyrocketing, Mainlands offers a competitive entry point, especially given the prime location.

Pricing Structure (Price per Meter):

• Admin & Medical: Starting from 73,000 EGP/m².
• Commercial (1st Floor): Starting from 95,000 EGP/m².
• Commercial (Ground Floor): Starting from 175,000 EGP/m².

Flexible Payment Plans:

To ease cash flow for investors, the developer offers extended payment plans that function as an inflation hedge:

1. 10% Down Payment – Remaining balance over 5 Years.
2. 15% Down Payment – Remaining balance over 6 Years.
3. 20% Down Payment – Remaining balance over 7 Years.

Note: Prices and plans are subject to change. Always verify the latest availability with us.

9. Challenges & Cons: The Delivery Condition

While Artea Mall offers numerous advantages, potential investors should be aware of one specific aspect that some might consider a drawback, though it is standard practice in commercial real estate:

Core & Shell Delivery:

The units are delivered without internal finishing.

• The “Con”: This requires an additional budget and effort from the buyer to finish the unit before operations can begin.
• The Silver Lining: Mainlands Developments intentionally chose this approach to allow business owners (especially doctors and retailers) complete freedom to design their interiors according to their specific branding guidelines or medical equipment requirements, which is often impossible with pre-finished units.

10. Why Artea Mall is Ideal for Foreign Buyers & Investors

For an international investor looking at the Egyptian market, Artea Mall represents a “Smart Defensive Investment.” Here is why:

1. The “Student Economy” Factor: Being minutes away from both the GUC and AUC guarantees a recession-proof flow of customers (students and faculty) who need cafes, printing centers, and clinics.
2. High Rental Yields: Small administrative and medical units (35-50 sqm) are the most liquid assets in New Cairo. They are easy to rent out to startups and doctors, offering higher yields than residential apartments.
3. Strategic Corner Location: Real estate is about location. A corner plot on two major axes is a “hard asset” that retains value better than mid-block properties.
4. Developer Reliability: Mainlands’ history of delivering malls like Elegantry and Business Plus reduces the delivery risk often associated with off-plan projects.
5. Inflation Hedge: By locking in the price today and paying over 7 years in EGP, you are effectively buying the asset at a discount in real terms if the currency fluctuates.
