Retail Development & Management Services

Building Thriving Retail Communities

We provide expert, end-to-end facilitation services that guide you through the entire journey of creating a successful retail centre. Our services are divided into two clear stages: developing your vision and ensuring its long-term profitability.

Project Facilitation & Development

Do you have land with development potential? We can act as your trusted representative, navigating the entire pre-build and development process on your behalf. We transform your property into a profitable, thriving retail centre, meticulously managing every detail alongside you.

Our Project Facilitation services include:

  • Site & Market Analysis: We begin by conducting in-depth feasibility studies of your property. We analyse the market, demographics, and competition to create a data-driven strategy that proves the viability of your site and maximises its potential.

  • Funding & Joint Venture Sourcing: Leveraging our extensive industry network, we connect you with the right financial partners and structure joint ventures. We work to secure the necessary funding to bring your project to life efficiently.

  • Strategic Retail Leasing (Pre-Build): This is our core focus. Before construction even begins, we develop a powerful leasing strategy and secure commitments from a targeted mix of national, regional, and local tenants to guarantee a vibrant and successful centre from day one.

  • End-to-End Project Facilitation: We facilitate the entire development process for you. From coordinating architects and engineers to overseeing construction and ensuring regulatory compliance, we serve as your single point of contact, ensuring your project is delivered on time and on budget.

Leasing & Tenant Management

Once your retail centre is built, our role transitions to protecting your new asset and ensuring its continued success. Our focus remains squarely on what we do best: strategic leasing. We manage your centre’s tenant mix to ensure it remains profitable, competitive, and a pillar of the community.

Our Ongoing Leasing services include:

  • Strategic Tenant Management: We act as the primary leasing contact for your property, managing relationships and ensuring the tenant mix we curated continues to thrive and meet its strategic goals.

  • Vacancy & Renewal Strategy: We proactively manage lease renewals to retain high-quality tenants. If vacancies arise, we move quickly to fill them with brands that enhance your centre’s value and appeal.

  • Retail Mix Optimisation: Markets change, and so do consumer needs. We continuously analyse your centre’s performance and the surrounding market to recommend and implement adjustments to the tenant mix, driving maximum footfall and profitability for you.
