MRE now numbers 12 highly experienced retail advisers delivering answers to owners and occupiers of legacy assets and portfolios and to retailers and landlords contemplating the changes and investment required to deliver high quality trading environments into the 21st century. Our retailer client base includes the UK's most successful and profitable operators who require swift, innovative, defining real estate advice across their portfolios. The knowledge acquired in delivering the changes required to the occupiers physical estates as a result of the omni-channel world allows us to also advise and service our Landlord clients both institutional and development, on the ever evolving physical requirements retailers need to respond to in our fast changing market. We operate under the single overarching umbrella of the retail market, encompassing High Street, Retail and Shopping Park , Leisure and Shopping Centres, rather than the traditional and historic model of "in and out" of town, from one central London office covering the whole of the UK and Ireland. We look forward to continuing to advise and work with our clients on the seismic changes taking place in our industry.
