Changes in Daily Life and Impact on the Property Market Brought by the Opening of AEON Mall Da Nang Tahnh Khe

Hello, this is DVR (Danang Villa Realty).

As the central city of central Vietnam, Danang has achieved remarkable development in recent years. For us who live in this city, the long-awaited news has finally begun to take shape. Yes, it is the arrival of AEON MALL, the shopping mall Japan proudly presents to the world, in Danang.

Construction is steadily progressing towards the grand opening of AEON MALL Da Nang Thang Que in summer 2026. This time, we explain the details and the 'changes to the city' from a real estate company's perspective.

1. The trusted "AEON Quality" across Vietnam

AEON MALL is Japan's largest developer and operator of shopping malls, renowned for creating "Life Design Communities." Beyond being a mere retail space, it serves as a central hub for the community, integrating shopping, dining, entertainment, and essential services under one roof.

AEON has now established its AEON Malls in Vietnam as more than just shopping destinations, positioning them as core community infrastructure.

• Southern Region: Tan Phu Ceradon and Binh Thanh in Ho Chi Minh City, and the adjacent Binh Duong
• Northern Region: Long Bien and Ha Dong in Hanoi, and the port city of Hai Phong
• Central Region: 'Hue', which opened in 2024, bringing a breath of fresh air to the ancient capital

A common feature of these stores is that, following their opening, the surrounding area's transport infrastructure has been developed, rapidly increasing their popularity as residential locations. Aeon's brand strength - characterised by 'Japanese-style cleanliness, attentive service, and reliable quality' - has become the ultimate symbol of trust for the Vietnamese people. This wave is now finally making its full arrival here in Da Nang.

2.A New Form of Urban Mall: The Strategic Location of the Thanh Khe District

This 'AEON Mall Da Nang Thang Que' distinguishes itself from conventional suburban mega-malls by embodying the characteristics of an 'urban complex'.

Its most notable feature is its exceptional accessibility. Situated in the very heart of the city, it is just a five-minute drive from Da Nang International Airport. It will occupy the lower floors of the large-scale complex 'TTC Plaza Danang', developed by the major local TTC Group, which integrates a four-star hotel, modern offices, and luxury apartments.

This location will undoubtedly create new pathways for local residents in their daily lives, as well as for business travellers and tourists. It will serve as a convenient spot to purchase daily necessities needed during their travels or to buy last-minute souvenirs before heading to the airport.

3. The Birth of "New Danang" and Market Expansion

The opening of this project in 2026 carries significant historical importance.

On 1 July 2025, Da Nang City merged with parts of the adjacent Quang Nam Province. Following administrative restructuring, it commenced operations as the "new Da Nang City", with a population exceeding 3 million. This transformation elevates Da Nang from a regional city to one of Vietnam's largest centrally administered cities, on par with Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.

AEON's entry coincides with this expansion in market scale. Of the approximately 50 planned tenants, over 45% will be brands making their debut in Da Nang. Items and experiences previously requiring a trip to Ho Chi Minh City or Hanoi will now be readily accessible locally. This signifies a step up in Da Nang's status as a city.

4. The "AEON Effect" as seen by real estate companies

The focus is on the impact this store opening has on surrounding property values - the "AEON effect".

• Rise in land and asset values: Past cases show that it is not uncommon for land prices in surrounding areas to increase by tens of per cent within a year of an Aeon store opening, following the announcement of its establishment. Improved convenience directly translates into increased "asset value" for land and buildings.

• Changes in rental demand quality: The establishment of an AEON mall transforms the surrounding area into one where daily life can be managed without relying on cars or motorbikes. This leads to a surge in rental demand from expatriate workers and affluent families. Not only is a reduction in vacancy rates anticipated, but it is also expected to enable the setting of firm rental rates.

• Accelerated Infrastructure Development: The establishment of a large-scale commercial facility will prioritise, at the administrative level, the widening of surrounding roads, the installation of street lighting, and the maintenance of public safety. Consequently, the area will establish its brand as a "liveable town", further enhancing its appeal as a real estate investment destination.
