AEON MALL Zama is located in Zama City, central Kanagawa Prefecture, approximately 45 kilometers southwest of central Tokyo. Opened in 2018, the property provides 55,000 square meters of GLA. Zama is a residential city of about 130,000 people situated between the larger commercial centers of Sagamihara and Atsugi. The city is also home to Camp Zama, a United States Army installation, which gives the area a visible American military and civilian presence that influences local commerce and demographics.
The mall’s tenant mix includes an AEON-branded supermarket and general merchandise store, fashion and lifestyle retailers, electronics, home goods, dining, entertainment, and a cinema. The property is accessible primarily by car, with extensive parking facilities serving the automobile-oriented transportation patterns of central Kanagawa’s inland cities. Bus connections from nearby stations (Sobudai-mae and Sagami-Ono on the Odakyu Line) supplement automotive access.
AEON Mall Co., Ltd. positioned the Zama property to serve a catchment between Kanagawa’s established commercial hubs. Shoppers in the area previously relied on malls in Ebina, Atsugi, or Machida (Tokyo) for comparable enclosed retail experiences. AEON MALL Zama consolidates a range of shopping and entertainment needs into a single location that reduces travel time for Zama and neighboring community residents.
Central Kanagawa’s retail landscape includes several competing developments, most notably Vinawalk in Ebina and Ario Hashimoto. AEON MALL Zama differentiates through its AEON-branded grocery anchor and its comprehensive tenant mix in a single managed environment. The property’s 2018 opening reflects AEON Mall’s continued expansion within established residential areas of the Kanto region, filling gaps in organized retail coverage between the heavily developed coastal corridor (Yokohama, Kawasaki) and the outer Kanto ring (Hachioji, Sagamihara).
