The game also features a two-storey Gash outlet at the [[North Point Mall]], which prominently features a [[Clothing in GTA Vice City|"Casual" clothing pickup]] (a simple outfit consisting of jeans and a T-shirt) in front of the second floor entrance, and is also incorporated into the mission "[[Shakedown (GTA VC)|Shakedown]]" as one of the outlets the player is required to intimidate for protection money. The Gash brand is also promoted on a blimp that floats hundreds of feet above [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]]. | ||
