Simon Property Group, the largest mall developer in the United States, today announced a unique promotion with retailers in it’s properties. Vice President for Special Marketing Andrew Kelp explains, “Last year Americans spent ten billion dollars on Halloween, with nine billion of that alone spent at Sprit Halloween stores. In order to capitalize on those sales, we’ve partnered with numerous retailers to have them temporarily renamed.”
Kelp believes the temporary Halloween-themed names could increase sales by as much as forty percent in their properties. Coming soon to a mall near you this Halloween season:
