The iconic Exhibition Park (Harare Showgrounds) is set for a major transformation if the disclosure by the City of Harare Mayor councillor Ian Makone that plans are underway for the construction of conference centre, a shopping centre and hotel is anything to go by.

Makone disclosed this after meeting Zimbabwe Agricultural Society officials as one of the trustees of the organization.

Property developer Terrace Africa recently announced a new project to develop a world-class shopping centre at the Harare Exhibition Park area along the Harare-Bulawayo highway.

This project is driven by the strong demand for retail space both in the Central Business District (CBD) and suburban space due to the growing number of retail business.
