Arada Awards UNEC the AED 2.18 Billion Madar Mall at Aljada, Designed by Zaha Hadid Architects

[UNEC] is honored to partner with Arada to deliver Madar Mall at Aljada — an AED 2.18 billion landmark designed by the world-renowned Zaha Hadid Architects, set to bring Sharjah a world-class retail and lifestyle destination.

Rising at the heart of Aljada, Sharjah's largest mixed-use destination, Madar Mall will become a new family entertainment hub for the emirate and a defining landmark for the wider region.

A Destination Like No Other

With 1.1 million square feet of gross leasable area, Madar Mall is designed as far more than a shopping center. The destination will feature:

  • More than 400 shops and 80 dining outlets across a flowing, Zaha Hadid-designed environment.
  • An ice rink, cinema and dancing fountains at the core of the visitor experience.
  • Family entertainment, leisure and lifestyle spaces serving residents and visitors from across the UAE.

Building the vision of Zaha Hadid Architects demands precision, craft and engineering depth — the very qualities that have defined [UNEC] for five decades.

Extending a Retail Legacy

Madar Mall joins a retail portfolio that already includes some of the region's most significant destinations — Deira Mall, Nakheel Mall, Silicon Central and Dragon Mart 2. We look forward to delivering this visionary project, which will serve as a new destination for families and visitors across the UAE.
