Description
Here’s to the Facilitators of Shopping Centre Success
Making a shopping centre popular and profitable is hard work. It is also teamwork. To get the leasing strategy, the tenant mix and zoning right requires expertise. And while malls usually have skilled teams onboard, sometimes bringing an external facilitator is required. Enter real estate consultants.
With their depth of analytical skills, industry knowledge, contacts and experience, consultants sometimes prove to be the magic ingredient for success not just for mall developers but retailers as well. After all, the shopping centres are a collective business
IMAGES Group recognises the contribution made by these professionals to the shopping centre industry. From finding the right tenants to helping turn around a flailing centre and working with brands and retailers to create magic for customers, consultants add tremendous value to the retail real estate ecosystem. In this edition of Shopping Centre News, we feature some of the leading and reputable real estate consultants in the business of shopping centres. The edition carries an exclusive feature talk highlighting the journey, challenges, aspirations, vision and goals of these professionals.
This edition is also special in one other way. It is the last issue of Shopping Centre News as a separate magazine. I am happy to announce that from the next issue onwards, Shopping Centre News will be a part of Images Retail, which covers the retail universe in all depth and detail. Sure, we will meet again whatever the format!
