Since the opening of Dizengoff Center in 1983, Israeli malls have become more than just retail centers, offering a wide range of services and activities. During tough times like the coronavirus pandemic or terrorist attacks, malls have expanded their offerings to attract customers. The diversity of storefronts and the ability to provide a safe space for customers have contributed to the success of Israeli malls. In contrast, malls in the United States are struggling due to the rise of e-commerce, with many facing high vacancy rates. However, recent studies suggest that shoppers are returning to physical stores for the experience of trying on products.
