Anthropologie Introduces Destination Shopping

Last week, Urban Outfitters, Inc. reported plans to roll out 25 to 50 new Anthropologie "mini-malls" over the next five years. The new stores will be nearly three times the size of Anthropologie's current stores, "creating an atmosphere where shoppers can hang out," according to a Bloomberg article. The goal of the strategy is to double sales from the brand by 2020.
