History
[edit]Originally owned by a group of Japanese investors including Yaohan and the Trade Development Board, IMM partially opened in May 1991 and planned to be fully operational by September 1991.[1] It was touted to be one of the world's largest one-stop wholesale centres. [1]
Renovation
[edit]
In May 2012, IMM began a $30 million renovation project. The size of the building was increased and more stores were set up in the shopping centre.[3]
In June 2024, IMM began another renovation project. Many shops such as Cotton On Outlet, were temporarily closed. Phase 1 reopened on 4 December 2024.
