Current Projects
|
- Evaluation of the tenant mix for a major new urban site increased usage intensification by over 115%, more than doubling valuation potential
- A productivity study of one of the industry's best-performing centers resulted in recommendations that could improve cash flow by more than $5 million per year and 120 additional recommendations to enhance merchandising and marketing efforts.
- A marketing strategy formulated for a center with falling performance due to multiple anchor closures resulted in increased visitation for 18 consecutive months and helped the leasing staff escalate the committed space from 65% to 85%.
- For a center stagnating at sales levels 20% below the industry average and high vacancy levels, Marketing Developments helped raise occupancy to over 90% and sales to 10% above the national average, including 24 straight months of gains.
- Extensive research and a strategic plan for a major city provided organizational, marketing, merchandising and physical improvement direction that has facilitated community commitment to revitalization and $1.8 billion of new projects.
- A review of feasibility data and the initial merchandising plan and project proforma of a new Middle Eastern project resulted in additionally identified income opportunities to increase cash flow projections by over 60%.
- Strategic redevelopment planning for the largest and oldest shopping center in Central America including site intensification assessment that will add hotels, office towers, a transit station and additional retail space. Merchandising restructuring study will fortify project strength with dominance in nineteen categories. Alternative income planning is projected to escalate center financial performance over 15%.
- A best use assessment that restructured project planning from an entertainment and movie theater project that demand study demonstrated would have created a substantial market over supply and vulnerable performance economics to a 750,000 square foot office towers and restaurant boulevard project. Performance projection escalated over 60% with considerably lower risk potential.
- Strategic development and merchandising planning for a 40,000 square meter retail and entertainment project in South America methodically structured to create obsolescence of a major competitor. Restructuring of original planning improved building efficiency, retailer presentation potential and created potential for over 30% of space to be considered premium locales.
- Development planning, feasibility review, merchandising planning and marketing services for a major Las Vegas entertainment and retailing project. The project has progressed through government approvals and financial offsets, as well as major institution ownership participation. Sales are projected at over twice industry averages.
