Westfield Manukau is a major shopping centre located in Manukau, a southern district of Auckland, New Zealand. Built in 1972, it was originally named Manukau City Centre.
History
The Manukau City Centre mall was built in 1972 by Fletcher Construction as part of the wider growth and development of Manukau. The mall was acquired by the Westfield Group in 2001 and rebranded as Westfield Manukau City. It was later rebranded as Westfield Manukau.
The mall has undergone several renovations and expansions, including the addition of a new food court and the development of a new cinema complex. The centre was redeveloped in 1986 and 1992, by then owners National Mutual and Fletcher Challenge.
On 21 November 1986, Mayor of Manukau City, Barry Curtis, announced plans to establish a mini-monorail system at Manukau City Centre ahead of the 1990 Commonwealth Games, with a later extension to the railway line at Wiri. The plans were later abandoned.
In late 2007, after a redevelopment, the mall had more than 170 stores and employed 1,458 staff.
Annual sales for the year 2018 were $293.4 million.
