[1][2] The shopping centre has about 35 businesses (of which the most notable are G-Star RAW, Superdry, Tiger of Sweden, Robert's Coffee, Fred Perry, Misako, George, Gina and Lucy, McDonald's, and Eat & Joy Kluuvi Market Hall).

Kluuvi offers 10 new international brand stores first and only in Finland as well as a mix of some interesting Finnish retail concepts and restaurants.

The shopping centre was opened on 15 March 1989, and was designed by the architect bureau Castren-Jauhiainen-Nuuttila.

The shopping centre comprises the entire western end of the Aasi (donkey) city block.

The Aleksanterinkatu 9 building was an Elanto department store (Veikko Leistén [fi] 1952) with a granite façade of a relief of a working-class family, sculpted by Aimo Tukiainen.
