| I know some insight of this. These big shopping malls in China do not charge the vendors any monthly rent fee. The mall owner takes a percentage of the sales in liue of the rent. Sometime it can be up to 27%. If the vendors does not make a good number of sales, they may be kicked out by the mall. The vendors need also pay other fees for commercials.
In order to control the accouting of sales. The cutomer has to pay to the cashier desk, which is represented by the mall owner. All the sales need to be monitored by the mall. |
