In case you don't know by now an outlet mall is a type of shopping mall in which manufacturers sell their products directly to the public through their own branded stores. Clothing sporting goods, electrical products, cosmetics, and toys are among the types of items sold at these malls.

Outlet malls first appeared in the U.S. as a development of the traditional factory outlet: a store attached to a factory or warehouse.

An outlet mall places several such outlets under one roof in a convenient location, usually an "out-of-town" site. The out-of-town site minimizes overhead costs. And they may be legally necessary as conventional retailers may have contractual restrictions on the manufacturer on the location of the factory outlets so as to minimize competition with the traditional retailer.

Therefore, factory outlets are usually located at least 12 miles outside of major cities, and consumers must account forgasloine costs and driving time when calculating their net savings.
