Mumbai, March 2019: IMAGES Shopping Centre Awards 2019 found out who the giants of the mall industry are — those who upped the ante and many an eyebrow in 2018; set benchmarks; and created landmarks at a time when the digital media explosion is challenging retail businesses and environments to reinvent and redraw their approach to consumers.

Independent analysts and IPCs who have been key observers of the developments in this industry, were invited by IMAGES Group to participate in the IMAGES Shopping Centre Awards 2019 decision-making process.

To shortlist the best performing malls this year, over 200 top brands and retailers with their respective Business Development / Operations / Marketing & Retail team members and associates were involved in the selection process. They voted to identify their most profitable mall locations across India. Tenants in shopping centers with different retail verticals, formats and consumer segments joined in to rank malls on the basis of their overall performance including metrics such as marketing promotion initiatives, trading density and ROI.
