Retail

Shopping centres, department stores, specialist shops – we advise tenants, investors and owners on buying, selling, renting and converting their retail property. With a view to high-yield properties and innovative shopping concepts. 

No other sector is feeling the effects of changing consumer behaviour as strongly as retail. E-commerce, experiential shopping, convenience and digitisation are current trends in the retail industry. Today we order comfortably from the sofa, it should be quick and easy. Nevertheless, the majority of customers still like to go to bricks-and-mortar shops, for example to browse, as a buying experience or because goods are immediately tried out and needed. Changing customer expectations are also placing new demands on retail properties. 

We know the shopping trends of tomorrow, know where and how your retail property can achieve the highest turnover or the strongest return for you. Whether in a busy shopping street, a shopping centre, outlet store or on the outskirts of the city with large parking areas – we will find the right retail property or the right tenant for you. We then carry out all contract negotiations in your interest and take care of the management and optimisation of your portfolio.

Are you planning to rebuild or modernise your store? Feel free to contact us and rely fully on our expertise in the analysis, planning and implementation of your projects.
