Seven of the 20 mall-type schemes currently under development across the country are located in cities with less than 200 000 residents, Q2 market data of real estate consultants Forton shows.

Four of the mall developments in progress are in Rouse with one each in Kazanlak, Gabrovo and Pleven, said Forton.

Shopping mall projects are also taking shape in bigger cities like Sofia, Plovdiv, Varna and Stara Zagora.
