FREY and ROS Retail Outlet Shopping take over Designer Outlet Berlin

FREY and ROS expand their European footprint with the acquisition of Designer Outlet Berlin, setting the stage for an exciting new chapter in its growth and success as a leading premium outlet shopping destination in Germany.

We present our Online Special “Shaping Spaces: Top Placemaking Projects of 2025”.

The approval of the planning permission has paved the way for the large-scale modernization of SILLPARK Innsbruck, to be implemented by fall 2026 while the center operates as normal and without impacting shop opening times. The construction work on the mall began a few days ago, with no restrictions for visitors.

Designer Outlet Parndorf focuses increasingly on overall shopping experience, increased internationalization and a clear positioning as a tourist magnet. In 2025, 6.3 million euros will be invested for even more shopping highlights, optimal infrastructure and sustainable projects.

The Global Hub of Innovation: exciting shopping-places with unique store concepts and forward-looking ideas. The 4th ACROSS Study Tour takes us to the United Arab Emirates.

The exchange of data puts the tenant-landlord relationship to the test. While the advantages of data sharing are obvious, tenants in particular find it difficult to share relevant data. The main reason for this is a lack of trust in how this data is used.

For the latest print issue of ACROSS, the industry experts have compiled their Top 10 restaurants and hospitality businesses worldwide. Their selection illustrates one thing above everything else: To be among the leading F&B concepts, it is not necessary to create a specific menu or to offer a particular cuisine or format, nor does it matter whether you are a new or an old player in the market or whether you offer fast food or gourmet dishes – the most decisive factors are maximum customer focus and authenticity.
