Eastgate is the major shopping centre for Christchurch’s rapidly growing Eastern suburbs. The centre has over 30,500m2 of retail, including 60 specialty stores and anchor tenants Farmers, Countdown, The Warehouse and Number 1 Shoes.
Located only 5 minutes from the city and on a main arterial route the Centre is ideally located as the convenient shopping destination for Christchurch’s East. Customers come from New Brighton to Linwood, Woolston to Ferrymead and Sumner to Lyttleton.
Eastgate has a high growth catchment and strong growth is expected to continue with; the continual development of new housing around Ferrymead, the Eastern hills and beach suburbs; as CBD apartment developments move further into suburbs such as Linwood and Avonside; and as more and more first home-owners move into the area.
