According to SM Supermalls, foot traffic increased from 3.3 million in the same period last year to an average of over 4 million daily visitors in the first quarter of 2024. This consistent expansion demonstrates SM's dedication to enhancing the mall experience with a variety of interesting events that meet changing customer demands.
"The increase in foot traffic reflects our steadfast commitment to meeting the daily needs and wants of our customers. Our malls serve as dynamic hubs that blend modern retail services with vibrant entrepreneurial environments. SM continues to innovate and elevate customer experiences. Our goal is to create lasting memories through dynamic destinations that complement traditional shopping." ~Steven T. Tan, SM Supermalls President

SM has turned its shopping centers into destinations that provide immersive experiences catered to each and every member of the Filipino family through its integrated property developments.
Filipino consumers are increasingly using malls for dining and leisure activities as they make a shift toward discretionary spending. Ten years ago, just 10% of mall spaces were leased by food tenants; today, 50% are occupied by non-food tenants, such as entertainment. The varied offerings are enhanced by additional tenants who provide services.
A prime example of SM's dedication to fusing art and entertainment is the Space & Time Cube+ at S Maison, an immersive art museum with 20 themed attractions like holographic displays and LED tunnels.
SM Supermalls offers a venue that fosters fandoms, regardless of whether you're a die-hard fan of your preferred K-pop group, anime, or musicians. SM is thrilled to help these communities and serve as the preferred location for fan events involving people of all ages and backgrounds.
A venue for self-expression is the recently opened Cosplay City at SM City Fairview. It serves as a community center where people can express themselves creatively and get lost in this multi-district area with zones dedicated to anime and toy exhibits, all wrapped up in a Tokyo City vibe that makes for some Instagram-worthy shots.
