Simon and GGP to open their doors for the holiday
General Growth Properties (GGP) will open its 120 malls in the United States on Thanksgiving, according to Fortune magazine.
Simon Malls, meanwhile, told the magazine it will open ‘many’ of its 200 locations at 6 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day.
But so far it seems to be up to individual retailers to decide if and when they want to be there to greet the shoppers.
