Anchor Stores

Anchor stores are large retail outlets that are strategically placed in shopping centers or malls to attract customers. They typically include well-known department stores or big-box retailers. Their presence helps draw foot traffic to the shopping area, benefiting smaller shops nearby. Because these anchor stores often offer a wide range of products and brand recognition, they play a crucial role in the overall success of the retail space, encouraging shoppers to visit and stay longer, which can lead to increased sales for all retailers in the vicinity.
