JAKARTA/BANGKOK -- Indonesian conglomerate CT Corp. looks to lure consumers who increasingly shop online by designing retail centers around leisure activities like indoor skiing, offering experiences that cannot be found digitally.
The company has begun construction on Trans Icon, a 2.5-hectare mixed-use development in the East Javan city of Surabaya. Set to open as early as 2021, the complex will come with a supermarket, apartments and a luxury hotel.
