Samarinda Central Plaza, usually abbreviated as SCP, is a shopping mall in Samarinda, East Kalimantan. Founded in 2001, this mall has been under ownership by PT Samarinda Central Plaza, a company founded by Rusianto (now deceased) and currently led by his daughter, Helen Rusianto. [1] SCP is one of the oldest malls in Samarinda. [2]
Samarinda Central Plaza was founded by Rusianto (Ong To Tji), a businessman that was previously known as the founder of PT Perusahaan Pelayaran Rusianto Bersaudara, a shipping company with the focus on energy and coal freight. [3] [4] When it was first opened, SCP became the largest mall in Samarinda and received prestige after becoming the first mall with a cinema facility within the city. [5] On 19 February 2011, SCP suffered a fire from Floor 2 for unclear reasons, causing visitors to escape themselves. [6]
SCP consists of 5 floors. The oldest tenant is Ramayana Lestari Sentosa on Floors 1 dan 2; they still operate since it was first opened on 9 November 2001. [7] Previously, SCP was one of few places in Indonesia with 2 different cinema chains owned by 21 Cineplex: SCP 21 and SCP XXI. Both cinemas are located on Floor 3, but SCP 21 had been existed since its opening, while SCP XXI was only opened on 9 March 2012. [8] SCP 21 provided 4 regular theaters with the capacity of 722 chairs, while SCP XXI provides 5 regular theaters and 1 VIP theater The Premiere, with the capacity of 922 chairs. On 30 June 2023, SCP 21 was officially closed. [9] Alongside the previously mentioned two tenants, Hero (supermarket) once occupied the Floor G. Previously replaced by Giant, their land has been now occupied by Farmers Market since 16 November 2017. [10]
On 25 January 2014, Kawan Lama Sejahtera opened the second branch in Samarinda for Azko (previously Ace Hardware) at SCP. That furniture shop is located at Floors UG and 1. [11]
