Question     Property developers who build shopping malls like to have them "anchored" with the outlets of one or more famous national retail chains, like Hudson's Bay Company or London Drugs or Sephora. Having such anchors is obviously good for the mall developers because anchor stores bring a lot of foot traffic that can help generate sales for smaller stores that lack well-known national brands. But what's in it for the national retail chains? Why becomes an anchor?
