What was once seen as purely functional is quietly becoming one of the most resilient formats in retail real estate. Markus Brugger, Managing Director, and Sorin Scurtu, Executive Director Leasing, CC Real, share why retail parks are gaining ground – and what’s next.

Anton Cech, CEO of Shopping City Seiersberg, discusses the new reality in the relationship between tenants and mall operators, the more conservative approach to expansion, longer negotiation periods – and why genuine partnership is a key success factor.

When Halle Leipzig The Style Outlets opened in April 2016, it arrived with a clear point of difference: it was the first outlet center in Central Germany. Ten years later, that first-mover status has been turned into something more substantial — an established regional destination that has grown with its market, expanded its offer and steadily deepened its appeal to customers across Leipzig, Halle, Dresden and the wider region.

In a retail landscape shaped by converging pressures – shifting consumer habits, selective brands, ESG demands, and digital integration – outlet centers are evolving from simple points of sale to strategic brand platforms. NEINVER CEO Daniel Losantos explains why tenant success is now the ultimate asset advantage and how a data-led, experience-driven approach can turn complexity into lasting performance.
