King Cross Zagreb has reached a significant milestone in its ongoing redevelopment, with the reopening of the first fully renovated section of the shopping center on February 27. The refurbishment is part of a broader modernization plan led by SES, the owner and operator of the mall, which is investing more than EUR 40 million to upgrade the entire complex. The transformation is set to be completed by fall next year, with improvements being carried out in phases to allow the center to remain open throughout the process.
The renovation project includes a comprehensive upgrade of technical infrastructure, enhanced parking facilities, and modernized retail spaces. SES aims to position King Cross Zagreb as one of the most advanced shopping destinations in Croatia, offering an improved customer experience with contemporary design and upgraded amenities. The work is being carried out while ensuring that day-to-day operations continue, minimizing disruption for visitors and retailers.
The first phase of the reopening introduces several new anchor tenants. Müller Drogerie, a well-known retailer, has opened a new location, and fashion brand Sinsay has also joined the center’s retail mix. One of the key highlights of this phase is the launch of Croatia’s largest and most modern Decathlon store, which serves as a flagship for the sporting goods brand. The redesigned store offers an updated layout, expanded product range, and an improved shopping experience tailored to the needs of sports and outdoor enthusiasts.
Further phases of the refurbishment will see additional enhancements across the shopping center, including upgraded common areas, improved energy efficiency, and new retail offerings. SES is focused on elevating King Cross Zagreb’s status as a leading retail destination in the region, ensuring that the shopping center meets the evolving expectations of both consumers and retailers.
The modernization of King Cross Zagreb reflects a broader trend in the retail sector, where shopping centers are adapting to changing consumer habits by investing in upgraded facilities, improved accessibility, and a more engaging retail environment. With the completion of the project next year, King Cross Zagreb is expected to solidify its position as a premier shopping and leisure destination in Croatia.
