Asian grocer 99 Ranch Market, the anchor of TAWA Gateway in San Gabriel, California, is at the heart of a major redevelopment that is transforming the 12‑acre property at Valley Boulevard and Del Mar Avenue into a premier lifestyle destination.
The center welcomes nearly 3 million visitors annually, and the influx of new food, entertainment and retail tenants is designed to complement the grocery anchor’s role as a destination for Asian‑inspired shopping and dining.
Fourteen new businesses are coming online through early 2027, including several first U.S. locations.
New food and beverage offerings include Guiji Tea (first U.S. location, opened in February), Dong Ting Chun (new flagship, opened in March), Cha Redefine (opened in May), Bafang Dumpling (opened in June), Happy Lamb (opening in July), Bingz Crispy Burger (one of first U.S. locations, coming in July), Show Hot Pot (set for August) and Com tâm Sà Bì Chuông (in March 2027).
New retail tenants include The Best Shop (first U.S. location, opened June 27), Miniso (in July), Golf Envy (in September), Kawaii Klaws (January 2027) and Soul Escape Room (March 2027).
“TAWA Gateway is more than a redevelopment project – it’s an investment in the future of the San Gabriel Valley,” said Jonson Chen, chairman of Sunny Skies Terrace.
“Our vision is to create a destination that reflects the energy, creativity, and cultural influence of this community while bringing together some of the world’s most exciting brands and experiences.”
The city of San Gabriel has an annual retail expenditure of $7.21 billion, with a growing population and a shift toward luxury, high‑density living. Commercial investment is spiking and new mixed‑use properties are reshaping the neighborhood.
Businesses will remain open during ongoing improvements and renovations.
