What do you get when you get no "dresses to impress"...
...nor any travel agency to enable travel--and all at A&C Shopping Mall?What you really get is a narrative of how the formidable Accra Mall has consistently been offering serious competition to this localised super-store in East Legon, which started up so successfully in 2005.
Go to A&C Mall these days, and you'll be presented with a sorry sight of one, two, three shops shutting down, because the competition of Accra Mall is too much. At best, they will go to Accra Mall store instead, as the store--a bags/wallets/shoes enterprise--next to the second picture did only last week. Initially, they had a store at A&C and Accra Mall; now they've completely relocated to the latter.
Interestingly, the store that will come to take over the store in the first picture--T.M.Lewin (a shirt/trousers store)--started very successfully in Accra Mall, and has decided to open an additional branch at A&C!
As to whether T.M.Lewin has made a sound business choice, time will only tell!

Interesting change-over. And yes time will tell if the new tenant will be successful.
Location, location and location is the name of the game.
These shops will move to and fro in an environment where new Shopping centres and malls are opening up until they find a place where the expenditure to turnover ratio is right.
We need more enterpreneurs to come on the scene to replace those gradually moving up the ladder.
