Dear Reader,
Every once in a while, you can feel when a new chapter is being written in an industry. Right now, that moment has arrived. With FREY and ROS, two strong players have joined forces who see the bigger picture and dare to take bold new paths.
FREY, the visionary retail developer with international clout, ESG DNA, and the necessary financial strength. ROS, the agile specialist with deep outlet expertise. Together, they are driving growth, sustainability, and experience, and proving that the outlet industry is not standing still but evolving. Stronger. More relevant. More future-ready than ever.
It is this blend of courage and foresight that inspires. Operational excellence meets creative energy, backed by the long-term vision and financial power of a committed investor. The result: a European outlet platform setting new benchmarks for brands, for investors, for consumers.
This special issue clearly demonstrates the power of two strong partners uniting. FREY & ROS is more than just a strategic alliance; it is a signal to the entire industry: the future belongs to those who dare.
I wish you an inspiring read and the same sense of excitement that carried us while creating this special edition.
Warm regards
Reinhard Winiwarter
