Ever since the first traders started gathering in markets and open places, setting up grand bazaars, shoppers have had the chance to find what they need, and all in one place. The shopping experience since the times of the street markets has developed enormously, and gained a great jolt during the 20th century with the surge of mass society, urban concentration, increased wealth and disposable income for the middle and even lower classes in first-world societies, and the increased culture around shopping and consumerism (for good or ill) that has resulted.

Over the past decades, the shopping mall fever started spreading all over the world, and diverse innovations such as escalators and large elevators have encouraged the development of greater and greater shopping centers. Moreover, outlet malls, focused on selling discounted products, have also gained a great reputation. Some of The Biggest Outlet Malls in the World are spread across the world from the San Francisco, U. S-based “Jeremy’s”, up to Tuscany, Italy’s, “The Mall”.
