Second Courts store in Indonesia begins construction

Courts Asia, the operator of retailer Courts Megastore, began with construction of its second outlet in Indonesia on Thursday, as the company races to tap into the country’s growing middle-income group.

The three-storey structure will boast 20,400 square metres of retail space in Bumi Serpong Damai, a satellite city located south of Jakarta, said Terence Donald O’Connor, Courts Asia’s executive director and group chief executive.

That would dwarf Court’s first store in Bekasi, which offers 12,000 square metres of soft retail space and is currently the biggest Courts Megastore in Southeast Asia.
