Shopping Venue Futures

Javelin Group assesses the commercial trading potential and optimum tenant mix for existing and planned retail-led developments (shopping centres, retail parks, factory outlets, mixed use, town centres…)

Our specialist analysts harness our deep retail sector expertise and unique insight to advise on retail-led property developments and acquisitions across Europe and the Middle-East. Our team has advised on over 220 schemes including many well-known developments such as Battersea Power Station, Bluewater, Athens Mall, Buchanan Galleries, Bullring, Cabot Circus, Highcross Leicester, Westfield Stratford, Silverburn and Galeria Pomorska.

Our strength lies in our unrivalled understanding of store retailing and its performance metrics (local market spending, catchments, trading densities, sustainable rents), and in our use of advanced analytical tools to deliver a comprehensive assessment of the commercial trading potential and optimum tenant mix for shopping centres, both planned and existing.

Our understanding of changing consumer shopping behaviour and inside knowledge of how retailers are adapting their shape of chain allows us to provide a well-informed view on what will make a successful shopping centre.

We also advise on the evolving proposition, business model and supporting technologies: the ‘future-proofed’ shopping centre.

  • Commercial feasibility studies for new and extended retail schemes
  • Optimised category and tenant mix
