#DEP-RTNM
Some of the more important trends featured in this video include entertainment-oriented shopping centers, themed environments, designer and manufacturer retail flagships, and the continuous explosion of "off-site retailing" with E-tailing as its centerpiece. Others include the growth of temporary retail outlets, the escalation of "store is the brand" retailing, the emergence of "value shopping" as a competitor to traditionalists, and the latest innovation that markets fashion directly through "door to door" selling.
Dr. John Konarski, a recognized authority on retailing trends, will offer his insights into the direction of retailing for the new millennium, and Mr. David Wales, creative director of FRCH, the internationally renowned design company, will address the new retail design directions to accommodate the trends.
