## Centrio Mall

The three-level mall (excluding the basement level that serves as a parking space) has a gross floor area of 64,000 $m^2$ (690,000 sq ft) and 44,000 $m^2$ (470,000 sq ft) for a gross leasable area.

During the construction period, Ayala executives decided to preserve two old acacia trees, which are believed to be 60 years old. The mall's alfresco area was built around the two large trees, which became the foundation of its mini-park called Centrio Mall Garden. The indoor park has become the premier attraction and at the same time a children's playground, making the mall the first eco-friendly and child-friendly shopping destination in the city.

The mall's major anchor stores are Rustan's Fresh, and a two-level Robinsons Department Store. The mall is also the location of the Department of Foreign Affairs Consular Office Cagayan de Oro, a passport office serving the Northern Mindanao region which opened at the third level in June 2014.

Home of more than 300 tenants composed of local, national and international brands of stores, boutiques, clinics, service centers and restaurants, the mall opened on November 9, 2012. It has four modern cinemas offering 2D and 3D technologies to movie-goers.

Today, Centrio Mall since its opening is fast becoming a favorite venue, mostly of local trade fairs, fashion shows, exhibitions, concerts and other events being held either in activity center, which can accommodate more than 300 people, or in the garden.
