Yvonne Court

International Partner • United Kingdom

Yvonne leads the EMEA Cross Border Retail & Leisure team; often the first and single point of contact for retailers, brands, F&B and leisure operators when moving into new markets globally or when they have real estate needs in multiple countries. 

She applies her decades of experience in international retail and strategic consultancy and from representing many international brands to advise occupiers and landlords.

Yvonne and the team cover everything from specialist consultancy offering initial advice on new market entry and location strategy including demographic analysis, rental and occupancy cost information and country specific legislation; through to agency execution and links into other Cushman & Wakefield service lines.

This client focused approach enables Cushman & Wakefield to monitor, coordinate and deal with key clients’ real estate needs and ensures they consistently receive the highest possible service.
