Industry closes 2024 and festive season in good shape
full year and festive season 2024
“2024 ended on a positive note, with growth in trading densities and rentals, and the further entrenchment of the lowest rent to sales ratio in 5 years, post Covid-induced volatility. Further, unwrapping festive season dynamics shows a stronger November than December trading growth position. 2024 also saw smaller centres shift to dominate the growth position of the industry.
The industry’s state of health seems to mirror the current consumer attitude towards wellness, which is one of the most important and defining trends to be considered in contemporary shopping centre strategy.”
