Digital Marketing Agency opened in Randfontein called AOM. While now a thriving business, the agency has also become heavily involved in the community by assisting the local CPF Executive and the CPF Sector 4 with their websites as well as giving a voice to the needs of the community by putting in place and managing communications on various social media platforms. Culture and contemporary life Shopping Shopping in Randfontein is characterized by typical High Street shopping with the majority of the shops situated along Main Reef Road and surrounds. The main mall, Village Square, is also along the main street and provides comfortable access to 72 shops (GLA approximately 20,500m2). Other centres around town include: Randfontein Station Mall (20 shops), Pick 'n Pay Mini Market in Greenhills owned by Dewald Naudé since 2003, and Greenhills Spar Centre (20 shops). Numerous shops are also found along Randgate's main street, Union Street. The proposed Lakeview Mall was abandoned due to a lack of funding. However, this development was replaced by the new Tambotie Mall (initially 20,000m2) with anchor tenants Checkers, Woolworths (Foods and Fashion), and Dischem, under the management of Broll. This shopping centre is on the corner of Tambotie and Malan streets, around the southern end of Riebeeck Lake. Excavation and groundworks started in February 2016 and it opened to the public on 27 April 2017. Municipal proposals for this precinct include a housing development and a new office park to be developed later. (The first recorded armed robbery occurred at the Dischem on Friday 7 July 2017, just three months after the centre opened.) Another shopping centre, Umphakathi Mall (12,500m2), opened on 29 April 2021. This is bordered by the R28, R559, and Ralerata Street between Randfontein Central/Toekomsrus and Mohlakeng, and has Pick 'n Pay, Pick 'n Pay Liquor, Boxer, Boxer Liquor, Ackermans, Russells, Sleep Masters, Pep Cell, Pep Stores, KFC, and Cashbuild as main tenants. The inclusion of a new taxi rank and a filling station will attract critical mass by creating a prominent transport node, and limiting the shopping outflow. A residential phase around the complex is being built. Factory shops A few factories sell directly to the public where goods can be obtained at greatly reduced prices. Some of these include: Aranda: blankets (Tulbagh Street extension, Homelake) Nola/Foodcorp: rusks, Bobtail, Catmore (Desert Street, Homelake; opposite the grain silos) Tourism The West Rand of Gauteng is a particularly
