In 2001, Franklins was closed as part of a wider range of store closures. It was replaced by BI-LO, which operated until the shopping centre's redevelopment in 2003.

In 2003, Southpoint Shopping Centre was demolished apart from Woolworths and four stores that continued to trade during the $55 million redevelopment. [5] [6]

Southpoint Shopping Centre reopened in 2004 as part of a mixed-use development containing 110 apartments on 12 floors. The centre featured Trade Secret, Coles, Woolworths and around 25 stores.

The Coles tenancy was originally planned to be occupied by former tenant BI-LO, but parent company Coles had decided to begin phasing out the BI-LO brand during construction.

It was replaced by Aldi which opened in 2017, and Chemist Warehouse which opened in 2018.
