As shopping malls continue to evolve in the digital age beyond traditional retail hubs into immersive lifestyle destinations, understanding Generation Z's shopping behaviors has never been more critical. This highly connected, experience-driven generation demands more than just transactions—they seek immersive, engaging, and meaningful in-store interactions. But what does that mean for mall operators, retailers, and brands looking to build long-term customer loyalty?
The aim of this discussion is to unpack Gen Z’s in-mall purchasing behaviors, their appetite for experiences, and their expectations for events and activations, including:
-
The rise of mall-based experiences, pop-ups, store-within-store, and entertainment as loyalty drivers
-
How social media, digital integration, and sustainability are influencing purchase decisions
-
Strategies that mall operators and retailers are using to enhance customer engagement and loyalty.
