The craze for the first store rose instead of falling. Shopping center, the competition is constant. Who won the first prize in this round of "shoplifting war"? What signals did the first batch of shopkeepers who carefully calculated the layout "Raiders" release? Why does it turn red after highlights?

First, the North, Guangzhou and Shenzhen have taken over 64% of the first stores in the country, and Wuhan and Hangzhou have "caught up".

1, Shanghai and Shenzhen are leading, and the first store in China has a firm foothold in first-tier cities.

2. The "sinking of the first store" is unstoppable, and the second-tier cities of online celebrities have become a fragrant cake.

The number of first stores in Wuhan and Hangzhou "overtook" Guangzhou and Beijing, and the number of newly opened stores in Xi 'an, Foshan, Nanchang, Xiamen, Tianjin, Chongqing, Zhengzhou and Chengdu all exceeded 60 in 2020. The absorption of the first store in second-tier cities can be seen.

With the continuous strong absorption of the first store by Wuhan International Plaza Shopping Center, the Wuhan-Guangzhou business circle is once again hot. With the commercial charm of taikoo hui, Jiazheng Square, Parc Central in Tian Huan and other projects, Guangzhou Tianhe Road Business Circle has also become the new "first store harvesting business circle".

On the one hand, they need to know clearly "Who am I?" "Why do I exist?" Is it for the brand to build momentum and brush popularity? Or do you really want to see the scale effect after expansion?

On the other hand, in the name of "the first store", it is only the first step to stir up a thousand waves in a short period of time. Rewarding consumers requires them to create sustainable enthusiasm. The key lies in the brand's operational ability-how to build a magical store? How to make the brand remember?
