ACROSS Retail Talks on “What’s new in Retail?”

This online event format was held for the third time this year. Three top-class panelists outlined the industry’s developments that were accelerated by Covid-19. A big and prominent expert-audience followed the discussion.

“Catchment Areas Are Changing”

As a Member of the Management Board of the Spar Group, Marcus Wild has been responsible for real estate, the sports retail chain Hervis, and business process management since January 1, 2021. He is also responsible for SES, a shopping center subsidiary, which he steered to market leadership in Austria and Slovenia in his role as CEO. In this interview, we speak with an industry player who has “switched sides”.

Accelerating the outlet centres playbook

The pandemic has turned the world’s economy and the retail landscape on its head. For the retail sector it has been a year like no other, but it is becoming clear that the health crisis has impacted the industry at different degrees. Although outlet centres are not immune to the pandemic’s toll, they have recovered at a much faster pace than other retail formats when restrictions were eased or lifted.

“Revenge Shopping” is coming soon

“Incorporating the latest trends and changes in shopping behavior in our managed outlets centers, they will be back stronger, driven by innovative glocal marketing.”

The outlet – a model approach to retail recovery?

“Many operators can still look to outlet as a strong, robust proposition for trialing their products, clearing old stock, accessing high levels of footfall and testing multi-channel retailing in attractive locations.”

Challenging Times for Leasing Departments

The primary focus remains on preventing further vacancies, reports Christine Hager, Managing Director of the redos Group. For the most part, the goal is being met by means of interim leases, for example, for pop-up stores, service concepts, and coronavirus quick-test centers.

Clear differentiation and positioning as well as a clear focus on people are crucial.
