Beyond Retail Challenge

Enhance the people experience within Immochan's facilities

Redesign the on-site experience

In 2016, over 1.7 billion visitors stepped into Immochan’s facilities worldwide but being a worldwide leader is a constant iterative process. Despite our retail-oriented DNA, we are always seeking for new exciting opportunities around us and believe your solution could shape the future of malls and customer experience.

The shopping experience is now brought beyond the simple purchasing action you can now find online. Humans desperately need social interactions. Malls should then, create an outstanding customer experience that drives people to visit physical spaces. People are our most valuable asset and should, therefore, beneficiate from the very best experience possible.

 

How can Immochan enhance people's journey?

 

This is a great way to demonstrate the superiority of your specific solutions. Our goal is to develop together a project that matches with our vision of linking people and creating sustainable, smart and lively places across our 13 markets (France, Luxembourg, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Ukraine, Poland, Romania, Hungary, Russia, China, Taiwan, and Vietnam) and our 400-managed shopping centers.
