In recent years, the Cotia and Vargem Grande Paulista region has undergone major transformations and there are no longer available areas to accommodate large developments. Vargem Grande Paulista, for example, known as a "bedroom municipality," has expanded since 2012 mechanisms to attract companies and jobs and, thus, has been increasing its collection levels.

It is in this context that the region, which, combining the two cities, has more than 360,000 inhabitants, is preparing to receive the Central Plaza Shopping in the second half of next year. The development is located on one of the main connecting roads in the region, and its total area involves 32,622 square meters of built area and 22,000 square meters of Gross Leasable Area (GLA).

More than 144 stores, six megastores, and three anchors, as well as kiosks, a gym, a cinema, among others, are planned. The Central Plaza Shopping will also have a walking track, beach tennis courts, a supermarket, coworking spaces, to name a few of the service and leisure options. The parking lot will have spaces for 800 cars.

The shopping mall was designed and developed by Jayme Lago Mestieri Arquitetura e Desenhos and Marcelo Faisal Paisagismo. The commercialization and coordination are under the responsibility of WE9 Resultados em Shopping Centers, and the incorporation bears the signature of Central Park Urbanismo e Administração.
