                                                     Why outlet is generally not impacted by e-commerce
▪    Product mix - per transaction via online platform ~ RMB200 vs per transaction at the outlet malls ~ RMB800/1000 => minimal product overlap
▪    Economics – online sales of outlet brands incur ~ 20% commission vs 10-16% commission at the outlets.
▪    Authenticity – 10X penalty / reward for selling by merchants / reporting by customers, of fake goods ensure no fakes goods at outlet
