Associate Director Daniel Morgans assesses the future of the UK’s retail park sector

Associate Director Daniel Morgans has written an Insight paper assessing current thinking on the future for retail parks in the UK. In it, he examines the key themes which will shape the retail park experience in years to come.

In particular, Daniel outlines eight fundamental concepts which retail park developers and designers should bear in mind in order to thrive in this challenging era.

Retail parks, like other areas of the retail sector, are having to rethink their business models and adapt very quickly to the extraordinary pace of transformation now taking place in the retail sector.

By embracing the addition of complementary uses on their sites, transforming the ‘story’ that customers encounter and creating a brand new community experience, retail park owners and operators could find themselves achieving hitherto unimagined value from their assets.
