Simon Property Group SPG announced the opening of the Jakarta Premium Outlets in Indonesia, representing the company’s first Premium Outlet in the country and eighth globally. Although the outlet is now fully open to shoppers, a formal grand opening ceremony will be held in the second quarter of 2025.
Jakarta Premium Outlets is set to cater to the Greater Jakarta area, encompassing more than 302,000 square feet of retail space. The center is nearly fully leased and features more than 150 global and local brands, including key premium, luxury brands, and sporting brands.

The shopping center is situated in the heart of the Alam Sutera Township central business district, located in Tangerang City, which boasts a population of more than two million residents.
