Culture :: Raising the Culture Bar in Retailing

Nordstrom's high-end department stores may have their fine art, and Ferragamo their in-house art gallery space, but Seoul's Lotte Department Store raises the culture bar to new heights. According to the U.K.'s Monocle magazine, the flagship Lotte has an entire culture center offering activities from cooking and dance classes to lifestyle lectures. And time-starved shoppers will enjoy the added services of a sports center, wedding consultancy, baby carriage rental and free mobile phone charging. On the drawing board are stores in China, Vietnam and India. Sounds like a winning formula to me.
