Definition from About.com:
A major retail store used to drive business to smaller retailers. These larger department stores or grocery stores are generally part of a retail chain and are the prominent business in a shopping mall.

Example sentence(s):

The presence of an anchor store can entice consumers to visit the shopping center or mall, and possible continue to shop at the smaller stores in the complex after visiting the anchor store. wiseGEEK
Conventional wisdom holds that a mall requires at least two anchor stores to be successful, and in the standard linear, bipolar mall design, one of these stores will be located at each end, so that shoppers traveling from one to the other will traverse the entire length of the mall, passing by the rest of the stores found within. everything2.com
An in-depth review of West London undertaken earlier this year identified an untapped opportunity in West London. We have therefore agreed terms to secure an anchor store at The White City Development. FashionUnited

osovinska trgovina ili osnovni dućan

Definition from own experience or research:
Osnovna trgovina ili dućan u trgovačkom centru, uglavnom su to supermarketi sa čestim sniženjima cijena i rasprodajama koji služe za privlačenje kupaca u druge sadržaje trgovačkog centra (butike, manje dućane, itd.). Jedan od primjera za to je Merkator (Mercator can be classified as shopping centres – hypermarkets characterized by orientation towards family shopping dominated by one hypermarket as the only anchor store in the centre)
http://hrcak.srce.hr/file/48283.

Trgovački centri u užem smislu imaju jedan ili više osovinskih dućana ili sidra (anchor store) te veći broj manjih dućana. Obuhvaćaju i osobne usluge, profesionalne usluge, ugostiteljske usluge i pojedine financijske usluge. Imaju slabo izraženu zabavnu funkciju i funkciju provođenja slobodnog vremena. Najčešće su smješteni na rubovima grada.
Tematski trgovački centri nemaju tradicionalno sidro (anchore store). Posebnih su arhitektonskih i funkcionalnih karakteristika. Na temelju tih karakteristika razlikuju se njihove podvrste. No teško je povući oštru granicu između pojedinih vrsta trgovačkih centara te je njihova klasifikacija često rezultat kompromisa ili osobnih stavova.

Example sentence(s):

Takva razvijenost funkcija Mercatora očekivana je s obzirom na tipologiju Mercatora, koji ubrajamo u skupinu trgovačkih centara-hipermarketa, a koje karakterizira primarna usmjerenost na kupovinu, posebice za obitelj, poradi postojanja većeg broja trgovine te hipermarketa kao, često jedine, osovinske trgovine or in English - According to the typology of retail centres, developed by M. Jakovčić, Mercator can be classified as shopping centres – hypermarkets characterized by orientation towards family shopping dominated by one hypermarket as the only anchor store in the centre. http://hrcak.srce.hr/file/48283. - hrcak.srce
