Neil Bannon – Retail Sales

As per the Retail Sales figures released by the CSO and our own experience across our retail park portfolio DIY & Household goods sales have been the stand out performer of the Retail sector since March.

Retail Parks continue to perform well with rolling restrictions on other retail outlets redirecting spend into home improvements.

Interestingly this is a sector with very low levels on pure online penetration although we have been actively engaging with a number of occupiers about facilitating their client and collect offer.
