    Genesis

    Post-Pandemic Desire for Nature: As a popular and high-traffic mall, Shenzhen Mixc World has keenly observed changes in the market and consumer demand, continuously rolling out innovative space operations. In 2023, inspired by "nomadism" and "outdoor life," it debuted a nomadic-themed camp spanning over 1,500 m², transforming the shopping center's activity area into a creative camping-inspired space. This camp became a city-wide sensation, garnering over 10 million exposures and attracting a large number of customers, thereby improving both performance and brand exposure.

    Reasons
