Looking at the numbers from overseas, Tsai points out that in the US about 50 % of the amount that an average consumer spends goes to large-scale shopping centers (including department stores, malls, and hypermarts). In Japan, the figure is 25-30 %, while in Taiwan it is only 11 %. This indicates that the possibility exists for expanding the large-scale shopping center pie.
再以國外的數據來看，蔡明澤指出，在美國，一般消費者的購物金額中，約有百分之五十是花費在大型賣場上（含百貨公司、購物中心及量販店），日本是百分之二十五到三十，而台灣只有百分之十一，表示台灣大型賣場的市場大餅，應該還有擴大的可能。
