Business park and shopping park Eisenach

A shopping park , also a shopping center , trading park , and the like is what an industrial park is called , which is intended for business branches of the trade .

Basics

Shopping parks concentrate retail stores , such as hypermarkets (mainly food and luxury goods), department stores , supermarkets ( wholesale stores ) , C&C markets , specialist markets , DIY , furniture or garden centers , as well as shopping centers (shopping centers in the narrower sense, which are used by a single operator to rent business premises are offered) with service providers from different industries. In addition to efficiency through the spatial proximity of different offers, e.g. for food, clothing, interior design - for the customer as well as a synergy for the provider - this also meets a modern need for an attractive shopping experience, such as gastronomy, wellness or event locations to linger after business hours .
Special forms are, for example, industry-specific retail parks .

Shopping parks can be individual, jointly operated shopping centers (form an organizational, functional or economic structural unit), but also different companies that share the parking lot infrastructure ( parking spaces , underground garages ), entrances , and other open spaces (several retail companies operating in one spatial Are close to each other).

The designation of a commercial area for commercial buildings of commercial enterprises serves in the spatial planning of the municipalities to intervene in the business landscape. In addition to the absolutely necessary accompanying measures such as good transport connections and extensive parking space, this often also includes restrictions on the size of the sales areas - especially in rural areas - in order to maintain the economic balance in the area and to meet the requirements of the local community development and regional development programs. The dedication falls under urban land-use planning : It is intended to direct traffic flows and preserve the established cityscape and townscape , and prevent urban sprawl through concentration. Therefore, shopping parks are a typical phenomenon of suburbanization , the fat belt of a city or place.
In addition, there are concrete economic policy intentions that protect the small business structure from cut- throat competition from large suppliers, but also create local jobs in structural development.
