Description :
The paper deals with the potential competition of an out-of-town shopping mall in the retail sector (Alexandrium in Greater Rotterdam) with respect to the inner-city of Rotterdam. It aims to identify the motives of visitors and buyers for such large-scale shopping facilities. The shopping mall concerned turns into a regional market for run shopping purposes rather than into a competing fun shopping centre.
