History

The shopping mall was opened on 28 March 2019. [1]

Architecture

R&F Mall is integrated below the first phrase of the R&F Princess Cove residential towers. [2] It sits adjacent to R&F Marina Place, a commercial center incorporating a yacht club and Permaisuri Zarith Sofiah Opera House, the first international opera house in Johor which spans across 114,430 square feet and a capacity of 600 audiences. [3] [4] [5] The jewel-shaped opera house, which reflects its identity as the "Jewel Of South", [4] was named after Raja Zarith Sofiah, the Permaisuri of Johor and incumbent Queen of Malaysia. [6] [3]

The mall features an open-space concept layout, taking advantage of natural lighting and decent ventilation due to its adjacency to the Straits of Johor. [7]

Business

R&F Mall was part of the first phrase of the R&F Princess Cove integrated development by R&F Properties.

The shopping mall's anchor tenants include hypermarket chain Jaya Grocer and home improvement retailer MR.DIY. [8] [9] It also houses various dining, lifestyle and fashion outlets.
