From community shopping centres to large regional malls, our shopping centres are a positive force for the local economy and society through their community work, building strong connections with our shoppers. We also keep up to date on potential new technologies and harness the value of big data, gathering critical analytics which provides valuable insight into consumer behavioural patterns. Using this data, we are able to offer an optimum mix of retailers that best serve the communities where these centres operate.
In addition, our shopping centres regularly undergo refurbishments and extensions, ensuring that they remain relevant and appealing to our shoppers.
