Retail is theater, and people like to be entertained while they shop. This change isn't merely a nod to nostalgia; it's a strategic move based on tangible benefits that stores offer, often overlooked by digital platforms, especially for certain industries. #shoplocal #BFCM #smallbusiness #shopsmall #retail #localshops

With the departure of retail staples like Sears, Lord & Taylor, and Kmart, mall operators are taking a wholistic approach to blend brick and mortar with digital. The strategy gives equal weight to both in-person and online shopping and is part of a broader brand expansion effort as mall operators work to attract new tenants.?For malls, the emphasis of this strategy has been to attract luxury retailers and build out experiences or activations.

The continued #evolution of #retailrealestate! "The role of the #store needs to be much more #experiential than it is today. I think #consumers are going to raise the bar, and they’re just going to expect that because when you can just #shop and do a transaction a click away, there has to be a higher purpose for a store. It’s not just about the consumer-facing aspect, but the back end of the operation becomes even more important. The store becomes a mini #distributioncenter." #larrytheleasinglawyer #shoppingandtheretailindustry #retailleasing
