Westfield Bondi Junction is seeing a surge in customer returns.
Despite the horrific events that occurred at the Westfield shopping centre in Bondi Junction last month, shoppers have not been deterred from visiting. The owners of the centre have reported that visitor numbers have remained steady since the re-opening.

On April 13th, 40-year-old Joel Cauchi went on a stabbing spree at the Westfield, resulting in the deaths of six people and injuries to several others, including a nine-month-old baby. Cauchi was ultimately shot and killed by NSW Police Inspector Amy Scott.

Scentre Group, which operates 42 Westfield locations, released a statement expressing their condolences and support for the victims and their families. CEO Elliott Rusanow stated that they are providing both financial and non-financial support to the families of the victims and those injured in the attack.

Rusanow also expressed his gratitude towards the Westfield Bondi team, as well as their security and cleaning teams, for their tireless efforts during this difficult time. He also thanked the centre's customers for their understanding and support.

After a Community Reflection Day on April 18th, Westfield Bondi reopened for trade on the 19th. Counselling and support services are still available to the centre's employees, customers, and business partners.

Despite the tragedy that occurred, the support from customers has been overwhelming. Rusanow confirmed that visitation to Westfield Bondi has remained at similar levels compared to the same time in 2023. In light of the events, Scentre Group has increased security measures at all their Westfield locations.
