It has hosted national and international retail brands, links with financial institutions such as Banco do Brasil and Bradesco, and participates in municipal initiatives involving Prefeitura de Osasco and Secretaria da Fazenda do Estado de São Paulo.
Osasco Shopping opened during a period of urban expansion influenced by investments from conglomerates like Grupo Pão de Açúcar and Grupo Carrefour and by real estate cycles tied to policies from the Banco Central do Brasil and economic plans such as the Plano Real.

Over time, ownership and management involved companies including Multiplan, Iguatemi Empresa de Shopping Centers S.A., and Aliansce Sonae Shopping Centers, reflecting consolidation trends that also affected Shopping Ibirapuera and Shopping Morumbi. Major renovation phases paralleled retail trends set by international players like Zara (retailer), H&M, and IKEA and local chains such as Casas Bahia, Magazine Luiza, and Lojas Americanas.
