A full-service lifestyle center, Robinsons Gapan is Robinsons Land’s s 12th mall north of Luzon and second in booming Nueva Ecija. It is conveniently located along the Pan-Philippine Highway in the city which makes it highly accessible to the nearby progressive cities of Palayan and Cabanatuan and the flourishing towns of the Bulacan province. Aside from being the province’s oldest and history-rich town, Gapan is also popularly known as the “Footwear Capital of the North.”
Robinsons Gapan stands proud on a 5-hectare property with a gross floor area of over 40,000 square meters spread across three levels of fun and exciting shops. Its vibrant design takes its cue from the city’s rich agricultural industry, as seen in the various rice crop-inspired elements throughout the mall. The visual inspiration is dubbed as the “Binhi ng Kaunlaran,” which translates to the role that Robinsons Gapan aspires for – the seed that would catalyze further the city’s growth. Warm and cool earth hues are used in the mall’s exterior, while the interiors have silhouettes of “pilapil” or the meandering pathways of the rice paddies. The shape of the rice grain is used in the Atrium and the hallways stretching out in two major axes are like the seed’s root and leaves growing out of the grain.
Amplified Shopping & Dining Fun
The mall also features a spacious and imposing Atrium ideal for the City’s important events, trade and art exhibits, entertainment, and other milestone events.
The mall will be host to an exciting mix of national and local retail and lifestyle stores, a wide selection of casual and quick-service dining options, family entertainment shops, and other fun amenities guaranteed to take the mall experience of Nueva Ecijanos to the next level.
Shopping for premium products and essentials are made more convenient and accessible as the mall becomes home to anchor stores like Robinsons Supermarket for grocery needs, Handyman for hardware and home improvement tools, Robinsons Department Store for fashion and lifestyle products, Robinsons Appliances for household appliances and gadgets, Super 50 and Daiso for affordable finds, South Star Drug for medicines and personal care, Toys ‘R Us for kids’ toys, games and learning tools, and Pet Lovers Center for all fur-parents. It will also house well-known and hip apparel brands such as Levi’s, Bench, Penshoppe, Regatta, Oxygen, Forme, Denim Hub, Macbeth and Red Dot.
Robinsons Gapan will be a destination for food lovers as it unveils dining selections from the tried-and-tested recipes to new palatable flavors from popular mainstream restaurants Botejyu, Conti’s, Classic Savory, Hap Chan, Serenitea, Macao Imperial, Jollibee, Wendy’s Koomi, Bo’s Coffee, Gerry’s Grill, Dunkin Donuts, Gong Cha, Mister Donut and a whole lot more. It also has the first Gapan mall branch of a homegrown favorite for cakes and pastries, Edna’s Cakeland, and the province’s pride NE Bakeshop. Foodies will also be delighted to experience a wide array of delectable food choices at Eat Street, a modern and hip quick service Robinsons Malls brand of food hall.
