Belas Shopping is the first modern shopping center of Angola, located in the Talatona city, in Luanda Province. Covering an area of almost 120,000 square meters, with a budgeted investment initially of 35 million dollars,[1] it was built by Angolan subsidiary Odebrecht. The official opening was on March 29, 2007, attended by government officials, politicians, entrepreneurs, the press, and others.[2]
The mall has eight cinemas, a food court, entertainment area and more than one hundred stores. Around a thousand people were employed in its construction, and since opening it employs about 950 people directly and some 1500 jobs indirectly.[2]
