Whether it’s employees taking a lunch break with their colleagues, individuals satisfying a sweet craving, or capitalizing on consumer spending, food courts are the heart of shopping malls and are becoming a lot more than simply places for people to consume food. In a country like Pakistan, the demand and appeal for good food are undeniable. You can find a range of various cuisines at food courts, attracting all kinds of individuals; and one thing is for sure, they definitely increase the footfall in a shopping malls in Islamabad.
With the world developing, food courts have grown in tandem with shopping malls. The most recent designs of real estate projects emphasize entertainment, leisure, and casual dining in. As a consequence, most people of all ages now visit shopping malls solely for the food courts. This footfall gives visibility to not just the eateries in the food court but to the entire mall, as one cannot visit the food court without visiting the shopping mall.
It comes as no surprise that with technological advancements and a boom in the e-commerce industry, consumers are switching to ordering online for the sake of convenience. The only way to encourage consumers to continue coming to shopping malls for shopping and forgo this convenience is to provide them with the compelling experience of a food court. This will transform any shopping mall into more than a sole shopping experience, and will instead allow visitors to spend quality and wholesome time with their loved ones. Additionally, it gives balance to a shopping mall and gives an effect of having different components to satisfy individuals of all ages and belonging to all kinds of backgrounds. The most significant element a food court offers to a shopping mall is that it keeps customers there for a longer time. The more appealing the food court, the longer shoppers will stay in the mall, and the longer they stay, the more money they will be likely to spend.
Think of it this way, if a family of three (mother, father, son) plans to visit a shopping mall, the mother will most likely be driven to visit because of the shopping, the son due to the games and arcade section, and the father will likely chaperone them with no real incentive. However, with the addition of a food court, it is likely for the father to feel incentivized and eagerly visit, as it is commonly believed that the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach! So, think about it? What better way to get families to spend a memorable day in a shopping mall than to provide them with a well-rounded space.
The more footfall a place has, the more popular and well-known it becomes due to the circulation of positive remarks amongst numerous groups of individuals. This is not just limited to shopping malls; in fact, footfall is one of the most important factors in determining how successful and well-known any space will be. No footfall in a shopping mall means there is little or no revenue being generated, which can eventually result in a complete shutdown of a project. There are steps that can be taken to ensure that such situations do not arise in shopping malls and one such step is to craft a remarkable food court.
