Market Update Feb 2012

Time to re-think the retail mould?

Flexibility in retail layouts is the key to a successful retailer growth strategy, especially in a mature market like Australia.

Where growth is no longer driven by rapid development of new shopping centres, growth may only be possible by breaking the mould and looking at previously ignored real estate opportunities like factory outlet centres, mixed use developments, university campuses, and urban in-fills.

There are many examples of retailers that have become good at adopting flexible formats to suit local sites and conditions, such as US department stores Bloomingdale’s and Walmart.

Walmart has developed a slew of customised formats for every occasion, from 18,000 sqm freestanding supercentres at one end to 1,000 sqm edited food stores at the other. This year it also came up with a 325 sqm concept for university campuses which includes a pharmacy and licensed apparel.

For small retailers in Australia who are frozen out of shopping centres, opportunities exist for expansion both at home and overseas.

Food for thought when seeking your next investment opportunity or setting up a new retail outlet.
