Many utilised their spaces to aid communities, while others upped their digital games to continue shopper engagement.

The June 2021 edition of Shopping Centre News brings to our readers an analysis of how shopping centres are once again preparing themselves with the ‘New Normals’ to counter the pandemic and welcome their shoppers with double fervor. Despite this excitement to see consumers back in the mall, shopping centres are under tremendous pressure, as theycontinue to deal with huge challenges and burdens, related to revenue, losses worth crores and are in need of fi nancial support both from the Government and fi nancial institutions. The issue addresses how malls are responding to and dealing successfully, in an organised manner, with new challenges, learnings, SOPs, safety measures, and retailers’ response to change in consumer behaviour.
