Outlet is a term that has been used a lot in recent years. Meanwhile, even with so much use, some people still don't know for sure what the expression means.
Well, Outlet is nothing more than a retail market in which producers sell directly to consumers. That is, sales do not go through a third party, such as an accredited store, or malls. The stores are usually luxury brands, with prices lower than other stores.

And it is precisely because of the lower prices that outlets have become so popular in recent years. Stores are usually found in distant places, at the exits of large cities. That's why they're called outlets. The word is in English and means passage, exit, channel.
