When you represent a fashion brand or a supermarket chain, you’d want your shop to be in the midst of retail traffic. When you sell industrial wares, you’d want your stores in the outskirts of the city, where your main clients are likely to look for similar goods or where transportation links are faster to reach.

Retail Space

If you feel happy where you are but your hunch says that growing retail space supply must have sent rent levels south, then you might opt for Rent Review. We can take up the Rent Renegotiation process with your landlord(s) or showcase alternative locations and advise on Relocation. These services are all part of our Tenant Representation offer that alternatively will help you to find new locations for your business.

Or yet, if you represent a foreign brand and wish to test the local market through a franchisee, then we can look out for potential partners with the relevant function and experience and broker support in subsequent negotiations. This is what our Franchisee Referral service represents. read more...
