New landmarks in Shanghai sweet home for brands
Gateway city's opening-up effort bears fruit as Hongqiao intl hub now a magnet for biz, consumers


Shopping at the ZZER secondhand luxury consignment store in Hongqiao has become something of a habit for 27-year-old Zheng Tingting, as she travels frequently from her hometown of Yancheng in Jiangsu province to Shanghai for business reasons.
Providing shoppers with various vintage luxury goods offered at appealing prices, the store is located near an exit of the subway station in the Hongqiao transportation hub, where passengers don't mind taking a few extra steps to check out what products are in stock.
"It only takes a five-minute walk from Exit C of the metro station to get to the store and you can easily spend three or four hours there, often finding things that you have been searching for a long time," said Zheng, who recently bought another handbag from the store.
