Advertising within the shopping journey

Use retail environments for relevance, repetition and proximity

Shopping centres bring together retail, leisure, food, services and community activity. Advertising can be planned around entrances, walkways, escalators, lifts, food courts, parking routes and other suitable high-attention environments.

DOOH Media compares current opportunities around the audience, catchment, centre mix, campaign dates, creative and budget. Recommendations focus on the role each placement can play rather than treating every retail screen as interchangeable.

Campaign options

Budget and buying

What affects shopping centre advertising costs?

Costs vary by centre, catchment, format, screen or panel position, campaign dates, duration, network size and availability. Creative versions and digital delivery requirements can also affect the complete budget.

DOOH Media does not impose a minimum campaign spend, although centre networks and individual products may have their own booking requirements. A focused local plan can be considered alongside broader multi-centre coverage.

Useful questions

Shopping centre advertising questions

Can a campaign focus on one shopping centre?

Sometimes, subject to the inventory and booking route available. A single-centre campaign can suit a local catchment, store opening or nearby destination.

Is shopping centre advertising always digital?

No. The mix may include digital screens, classic panels and other place-based formats depending on the centre and current inventory.

Can shopping-centre screens use motion creative?

Some digital networks allow motion while others require static artwork. The confirmed specification and scheduling rules determine what can run.

How much does shopping centre advertising cost?

There is no single rate. Cost depends on the centre, format, position, dates, duration, package and any creative or delivery requirements.
