The Department Store Is Now Closing Shop. This Is A Huge Impact.

The review of China's real estate market in the third quarter of 2015, released by CB Richard Ellis, shows that the squeezing effect of fast developing electricity providers on physical retail is still outstanding. The physical retail market is facing greater pressure of pformation, especially in the traditional business model.
