Gya: First mall

BARTICA has become the proud home of Guyana’s first modern shopping mall which was the dream and vision of local entrepreneur, Mr. Mohamed ‘Tarzie’ Ghanie and his family.

The spanking white two-flat concrete building was exquisitely designed using modern architecture and houses 27 stores, all of which have been occupied.

The multi-million-dollar mall offers a wide variety of goods for sale, including food and beverages, clothing, haberdashery, electrical equipment and a host of other items.

Proud and eager Barticians in large numbers gathered at First Avenue yesterday morning to witness the official opening of the mall which was done by President Bharrat Jagdeo.
