Lulu Group to Develop Mall in Vizag, Logistics Hub in Seema
A big company called Lulu Group is going to build a huge shopping mall in Visakhapatnam, a city in India.
They will also build a place to help ship things out from another part of the state called Rayalaseema.
The Chief Minister said that a previous government had stopped this project, but now it's back on track.
The mall will be very fancy and should be ready in three years.
It's expected to bring lots of visitors and jobs.
Lulu Group also plans to buy fruits like mangoes and guavas, and spices from local farmers in Andhra Pradesh to send to their stores all over the world.
This deal is part of a big meeting where many companies come to discuss investing in the state.
Lulu Group International will develop a world-class integrated mall in Visakhapatnam and a logistics hub in Rayalaseema.
The agreement was signed during the 30th CII Partnership Summit in the presence of Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu and Lulu Group chairman Yusuff Ali.
The Visakhapatnam mall, with an investment of Rs 1,066 crore, is expected to create 5,000 jobs and boost tourism.
