Croydon is well known for having many places to go shopping, which includes two shopping centres called Centrale and the Whitgift Centre.
A third one called Park Place is planned.
Croydon has been rated the 20th best shopping area in the UK.
It is also well known for holding a lot of offices for companies to let.
The council wants to keep Croydon a big town by building more offices and entertainment facilities so a new place called the Croydon Gateway is planned.
Purley Way, just west of Croydon, is a large retail park area which has many shops like Comet (which went in admin in 2012), Sainsbury's, McDonald's, IKEA, Argos, M&S, Boots along with a cinema and bowling alley.
