Sococé Deux Plateaux has operated since 1996 on Rue K125 off Boulevard Latrille in Cocody Deux Plateaux, making it Abidjan's longest-running shopping centre and a fixture for the Deux Plateaux and Angré neighbourhoods. Its more than 20,000 m² are anchored by a Hyper U hypermarket for groceries, household goods and pharmacy items, surrounded by around 38 shop units carrying international fashion and sportswear names such as Kiabi, Mango, Celio, Havaianas and Go Sport, plus restaurants and the Majestic Sococé cinema, the multiplex that gives the eastern suburbs their own screening option without a trip to Le Plateau or Marcory. As with Abidjan's other modern malls, prices throughout are fixed and paid in CFA francs by cash or card, with no bargaining and no tax-refund scheme. The centre functions as the default weekend outing for the surrounding residential area, combining a supermarket run with dinner and a film, and its restaurant row and cinema forecourt are consistently the busiest parts of the complex on Friday and Saturday evenings.
