| Description | A very successful phenomenon of the current era is shopping centres. The main wave of their expansion dates back to the end of the 1990s, but it came to a stop with the start of the economic crisis in 2008. Some centres have problems with the outflow of customers and a few have now closed down. The market is saturated in many places and competition is intense. Today’s decisive factors for success are attractive location, suitable mix of lessees, and more popular opportunities for entertainment and leisure. What remains controversial, however, is the localization of large shopping centres outside urban residential areas and near town centres, which often lose their commercial and social functions due to the outflow of visitors. Spatial and socieconomic analysis of shopping centres in the Czech Republic and Brno is added about selected research results of commuting to retail shops (included shopping centres) and shopping behaviour in inner city of Brno. |
