On 25th of April in Warsaw (Poland) the International Council of Shopping Centres (ICSC) presented Multi’s Forum Lviv in Ukraine with a Commendation in the category New Developments (Medium & Large).

Forum Lviv, opened in 2015, is Multi’s first shopping centre in the Ukraine. The centre is located in the historic inner city of Lviv and is one of the most prestigious retail projects in the country.

ICSC jury: ‘’Forum Lviv is perfectly embedded within the urban fabric. Located on a former brownfield location close to the city centre it is the engine now for urban regeneration in the wider area. This is supported by the improvement of public space in connection to Forum which also ensures strong connections of the shopping centre to the existing city. Forum Lviv brings a wide variety of fashion retail chains; international brands that are new to the region as well as domestic formats. Forum was realized under very difficult political and economic circumstances in the Ukraine. It nevertheless has been a great success since the day it opened, proving that it is based on sound market fundamentals.’’

Gawein Minks, development director Multi Poland said: «Having a track record of over 35 years across nearly 20 countries, Multi can proudly count on having a great deal of experience. However, the challenges in Ukraine were so extraordinary that we, as a team, stretched ourselves to the maximum. We are grateful for the experience, but even more so for what we have been able to accomplish for the city».
