Construction on the parking lots started last November and work on the commercial buildings began in February this year.
The shopping complex will aim to serve as a "boundless field," allowing consumers to experience space, scenario and service by integrating surrounding cultural and tourism resources.
The waterways in Qingpu's Zhaoxiang Town will be integrated into the complex to offer a field of leisure activities and an occasion for "micro vacations."
Building on the outlet's mix of commerce, sports, fashion and art, it seeks to offer a more relaxed and engaging shopping and social experience.
In the first seven months, all of Bailian's outlets in the country recorded an increase in both foot traffic and sales.
The group has been actively introducing new product launches and new brands such as outdoor niche brands to cater to latest consumption trends.
Outlet shopping malls have been outperforming other retail sectors in recent years.
According to the China Commerce Association for General Merchandise, total transaction size of a combined 251 outlet shopping malls around the country reached 239 billion yuan in 2024, up 4 percent from that of 2023.
