Who doesn't like shopping? Even those who consider it a waste of time are sometimes forced to go shopping. Clothing and shoes can not keep their appearance indefinitely, so everyone is faced with shopping. Since traveling to different points is quite tiring, it is much more convenient to visit a large shopping complex where you can find a wide variety of products from various brands. One of these is the Outlet Village Pulkovo.
About Outlet Format
Outlets can be called a paradise for lovers of buying clothes, shoes and accessories from well-known manufacturers of the premium segment at affordable prices. Since here they are sold at very big discounts. But such trading floors are bypassed by those who are hunting for new and exclusive products; there are no such ones here. Last year’s collections that were not fully implemented in major stores fall into the outlets. But to ensure regular updating of the assortment, there is an international rule saying that the oldest things that are permissible to implement here should relate to collections released a maximum of two years ago.
An outlet is not a drain, it is an intermediate link in a retail line. Therefore, not miserable remnants of what was not sold here are sent here, but full-sized rulers. That is why they are interesting that you can pick up a thing of a suitable size. An outlet is a store that does not have external differences from a boutique. The design is made in the same style and colors, qualified staff works, purchases are wrapped in company packaging. The main difference is the cost - the range is sold at substantial discounts. Usually their value varies from 30 to 70%.
What is it like?
Outlet Village Pulkovo is a shopping mall, another project of Hines, which opened a similar complex in Moscow a few years before. It is a full-fledged city, occupying an area equal to 25 thousand square meters. m. There are streets, squares, fountains in the open. But do not wait for good weather to go shopping. Protect in bad weather canopies located around the perimeter of the complex. There are playgrounds for children. Between purchases, you can relax and have a bite to eat in the cafe or restaurant.
Price policy
Outlet Village Pulkovo is not an ordinary shopping center, which lures buyers with non-existent discounts. It operates in accordance with laws applicable to this format. At the same time, the brands presented here independently determine the size of discounts. In a typical period, they vary from 30 to 50%. But when there are periods of sales, they can reach 80%. In addition to last year's collections, new ones can be presented here. Usually these are things that are produced in fairly large quantities, some of which immediately go to the outlet. But the discount on them is usually not more than 20-30%.
A distinctive feature of Russian outlets is that clothing, shoes, accessories and home goods are represented not only by expensive brands. There are a sufficient number of brands related to the middle price segment. This is due to the fact that the appreciation of the dollar and the euro has made serious adjustments to the value of foreign items, making them less affordable for many buyers.
