Wilmington, besides being a tourist destination, is also a vibrant shopping mecca. Wilmington has two main shopping centers, Mayfaire Town Center and Independence Mall, if you’re looking for national brand chain stores and the larger department stores. Leland shopping choices are growing, with new stores in the Walmart Super Center, Waterford Village and a new center being developed at Brunswick Forest. But where Wilmington shoppers and tourists find unique, one-of-a-kind stores and an eclectic shopping experience are the smaller centers that offer retail, restaurants, popular services and more. Notable among these are the Cotton Exchange, Downtown, Lumina Station near Wrightsville Beach or Blue Moon Gift Shops.
