Former Shortland Street actor and musician turned real estate mogul Paul Reid has put Dunedin’s Meridian Mall back on the market, after buying it in July 2021.
Mr Reid said during his ownership of the mall, his Icon Group had filled in about 5000sq m of vacant space left over by Kmart and H&J Smith.
The group had leased space to the Chemist Warehouse, Kathmandu and the ground floor to Les Mills, which had signed on for 20 years.
Kathmandu, Les Mills, and Chemist Warehouse have all opened in the redeveloped Meridian Mall this year.
He said he spent a significant amount of money preparing the space for the new tenants which included giving it seismic upgrades.
Mr Reid said the Mall still had a lot for potential for growth because brands like Mecca and H&M were looking to buy space in Dunedin.
