Pasha Malls Group, which began operations in 2008, is the largest entity managing shopping centers in the country. Currently, the company oversees seven shopping and entertainment centers, with six located in Baku and one in Ganja. The newly opened "Crescent Mall" is the group's eighth shopping center.

The "Crescent Mall" combines tradition and innovation, showcasing Baku's modern and dynamic development. Spanning 115,000 square meters, the center offers a variety of shopping, entertainment, and relaxation facilities, including a five-story building equipped with modern technologies, a three-story parking area with 1,193 spaces, outdoor terraces and restaurants, and the first musical fountain in Azerbaijan.

Aligned with contemporary trends, Crescent Mall features 107 stores that cater to fashion, gastronomy, health, spa, children's entertainment, learning centers, and more. The mall will employ around 2,400 staff. Additionally, the "Crescent Mall" offers a range of services including a spa, beauty, and fitness centers.

The shopping center, built with the latest technologies, features an AI-powered information guide service that aligns with current digital trends. This guide will offer detailed information about the various brands operating within the mall, provide directions, and answer queries related to the services available. This service aims to facilitate easier navigation for visitors throughout the shopping center. The AI guide is capable of providing written information in 140 languages and spoken information in Azerbaijani, English, and Russian.
