It has parking for over 100 cars and access to the site is easy from both the University of Lagos end and the Surulere Stadium end.

According to the Managing Director of Wemabod Limited Plc., Mr. Oluyemi Ejidiran, the mall is targeted at residents of Adeniran Ogunsanya, Ogunlana Drive Masha, Lawanson, Eric Moore, Yaba, Bariga, Shomolu, Bode Thomas, Surulere, and its environs.
The Super Mall project was conceptualized in 2020, generally due to the absence of modern formal retail channels in Surulere and its environment. The mall was born out of Wemabod desire to create a destination point for Lagos State residents around Surulere, to have an experience of a formal shopping mall.
The Mall when completed is expected to further stimulate nightlife and commercial activities in the host environment. It will provide thousands of jobs for the formal and informal sectors. It is a huge contribution by Wemabod to stemming the tide of unemployment within the society.
