Thornhill Shopping Centre was officially opened on the 26 March 2009 by councillor Maseriti Legora of the Polokwane Municipality. The R100million centre is a joint venture between Atterbury Property and Tysocon Property and is strategically positioned on the corner of Veldspaat (the Breweries road) and the Munnik/Duiwelskloof road close to the R71 that now forms part of the N1 diversion

The Bendor area is well-known and is one the fastest-growing and most sought-after areas in Polokwane.

Since the opening, the 8730m2 Centre has become a landmark shopping destination for Polokwane shoppers, offering over 20 stores of convenience and a shopper friendly environment in a village-type architecture, which includes the use of natural stone brickwork and aesthetically pleasing finishes

The good mixture of shops also offers shoppers a welcoming, relaxed, safe and unpretentious environment with adequate parking at Thornhill Shopping Centre.
