Abstract

The previous parts of this book have mainly concerned ‘Why people shop where they do?’ in terms of choices of (bricks) shopping centres. For the future, shopping centres are facing increasing competition from e-retailers. This part of the book addresses e-shopping. Firstly, this chapter explores shopper’s motivations for e-shopping rather than bricks (physical store) shopping.

This chapter is adapted from a paper delivered at the International Conference on Recent Advances in Retailing and Services Science (Dennis and Papamatthaiou 2003)1
