The Centrepoint Shopping Centre (Chinese: 先得坊购物中心）is a shopping mall in Singapore which opened in 1983 as Centrepoint Shopping Centre (or just Centrepoint) until its renaming in 2006 as The Centrepoint. The mall has anchor tenants which include Robinsons, Marks & Spencer, The Dairy Farm Group (7-Eleven, Cold Storage, Guardian Pharmacy, Photo Finish) and clothing retailers Gap and Esprit. The Centrepoint is managed by Frasers Centrepoint Ltd which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Fraser & Neave. It has six storeys and two basements, which on the first basement to the fifth floor are retail and food and beverage outlets, the sixth floor a carpark and education centres. There are two carparks in the building, one at basement two and another on levels 4, 5 and 6. Centrepoint has apartments at the back of the building.

In 2005, Fraser & Neave announced that the mall will be going under a major revamp, the first since its opening. The revamp included a six storey extension with two basements which was previously a sidewalk. The second basement to the third floor will be for food and beverage and shops and the fourth to sixth floors an extension of Robinsons. The building has been completed in December 2006 with a Gap on the second floor, as well as an Esprit store on the third floor.

Accessibility

The Centrepoint can be accessible from Orchard Road where vehicles can enter the carpark through a side road. Somerset MRT Station is located opposite the shopping mall.
