Three big malls in Moss

Recently I told you a new shopping mall had opened in Moss, and yesterday the daily newspaper Moss Avis gave the following numbers for the three local shopping malls.

It is considered that Moss and the surrounding area has around 60 000 residents.
Can they support the following malls?

MOSSEPORTEN is the oldest centre, 21 years old, and is now being renovated. Last year they had 2 million visitors. The renovation will be ready by Christmas 2008. They will then have increased the number of shops from 50 to 100. This centre is at the entrance to Moss, right next to Highway E6 (that is the highway bringing you from f.ex. Oslo to Gothenburg).

AMFI is in the centre of Moss, a kind of building together of houses and shops into one unit, something that was done during the last years. They have around 100 shops and had four million visitors last year. The bus station is right in the middle of this complex.

RYGGE STORSENTER just opened. They are situated in nearby Rygge, just across the border between Rygge and Moss, and with easy access to the E6 highway. They have 50 shops and expect to have 2 million visitors in the coming year.
