Abstract
Outlet centres are becoming a more popular place for shopping. As a result, new outlet centres appear frequently and more are being planned. In the context of the Netherlands, the outlet centres are mainly appearing next to medium-sized towns. It often happens that protests rise from retailers in the city centre, because of a fear for decline. Whether this decline will actually appear is a central issue of this thesis. The three currently existing outlet centres in the Netherlands have been researched in this thesis to understand how the relation between an outlet centre and its corresponding city centre works. It can be concluded that a strong distinction between the two places is important to prevent decline in the city centre. Furthermore, a good connection between the two places can encourage city centre visits. At last, the created jobs also have a positive impact on the city centre.
