Electronic Charging Stations to be Installed at South Shore Plaza

Most Simons Malls throughout New England, including South Shore Plaza in Braintree, plan to add electronic charging stations by early July.

The electronic charging stations will be easily accessible, located near soft seating areas, and will provide shoppers a convenient way to charge cell phones, tablets, laptops and other personal electronic devices, according to a press release.

The design of the charging station is in the shape of a tower and presents shoppers with two outlets and a small shelf to rest devices on while they charge. Four stations will be installed at the Plaza.

“Simon Property Group is constantly thinking of ways to simplify the lives of our shoppers and provide them with the services and amenities that are desired,” said Brian Jenkins, Vice President, Simon Property Group, New England.

“Along with the Simon Mobile Shopper Club, which allows shoppers to receive the latest coupons, updates and alerts via text, and our Simon Malls Mobile App, which puts a personal shopping assistant in the palm of your hand, the electronic charging stations are yet another way we can assist shoppers who are on the go.”
