Retail and F&B Leasing
Retail and F&B succeed together or not at all. The right mix of cafés, restaurants, services and anchor brands draws people in, keeps them longer and lifts every tenant’s sales. We plan that mix for you and lease it on your behalf.
The tenant mix is the strategy
We start with a tenant-mix and zoning plan built around the people your project serves: residents, office workers and visitors. It sets which categories belong where, which anchors to secure first to build momentum, and how unit sizes can be arranged to suit the operators you want. Typical categories include cafés, casual and fine dining, supermarkets, pharmacies, fitness, daycare and everyday services. Each zone is planned around footfall, visibility, frontage and access.
The right operators, approached the right way
We then approach operators category by category, from established local brands to regional and international names. Your project is presented with clear material and layout plans. We assess each operator on its concept, track record and financial strength, and offers balance rent with long-term performance: base rent, service charge, fit-out periods and the terms that keep a retail scheme healthy.
Opening well, trading well
A good retail lease is only the beginning. Our fit-out team guides each operator through design approval, works and opening. That protects the look, safety and standard of your project, from shopfronts and signage to kitchen services. Once the operator is trading, our tenant relations team stays close, so problems are solved early and good operators renew.

Frequently asked questions
Why does tenant mix matter so much?
Because shoppers and diners come for the whole place, not one shop. A balanced mix brings more visitors, longer visits and stronger sales for every tenant, which supports rent and renewals.
Should I secure anchors first?
Usually, yes. A strong anchor or a destination F&B operator builds momentum and makes the remaining units easier to let.
Do you deal with international brands?
Yes. We approach local, regional and international operators, depending on your project’s position.
How do you control the look and quality of shopfronts?
Through the fit-out guideline and our design approval process. Every shopfront, sign and interior is reviewed before works start.
Can you help with F&B technical requirements?
Yes. Our fit-out team reviews kitchen services, extraction and fire safety designs, and coordinates them with the building’s systems before approval.
