The African Mall - Gaborone - Botswana

The African Mall is one of the oldest and most iconic shopping centers in Gaborone, the capital city of Botswana. Established in the 1960s, it has remained a key part of the city’s commercial landscape for decades. Although more modest in size compared to the Main Mall, the African Mall offers a wide variety of goods and services that cater to everyday needs.

The mall hosts numerous businesses, including supermarkets, local and international fashion stores, restaurants, fast food outlets, beauty salons, electronic shops, banks, office parks, gift shops, and even petrol stations. It’s a vibrant space where both locals and visitors can experience the daily hustle of Botswana’s retail scene.

One of its most attractive features is the affordability of its products. Shoppers can find both branded and locally made items at competitive prices. Bargaining is common practice, so being a savvy negotiator can lead to great deals. The mix of traditional and modern businesses creates a unique shopping experience that reflects the diversity of Gaborone itself.

Conveniently located at the intersection of Kaunda Road and Independence Avenue, the African Mall is not only a place to shop but also a hub for community interaction and local commerce.
