“ The Simon team is actively helping us to find the best place in the center where we can operate and get a lot of customers. We are really happy Simon appreciates our products. -Minah Wang ” TOO COOL In Illinois, two sisters, Mina and Jamie Wang are fellow business entrepreneurs active in our Simon malls—Woodfield Mall and Orland Square. With their positive spirits, they serve a niche market focused on anime and action figures, toys and other memorabilia. While they have enjoyed a loyal fan base and seen their businesses grow, 2020 was a challenging year. In March of that year, both centers were closed due to local regulations but once they reopened and welcomed customers back in July, Mina once again had a line of clients in front of her store. Both shopping centers have received the WELL Health-Safety Rating in 2020, demonstrating the high health and well-being measures taken by Simon to safeguard a safe shopping experience for the continued success of our tenants.
