With the retail landscape evolving at a rapid rate, Retail Property Marketplace (RPM) is a unique event catering to the retail and leisure property industry.
This new event took place at the Overseas Passenger Terminal, Sydney, on Thursday 8 September, where retail and leisure occupiers met face-to-face with a diverse range of landlords, agents, fit-out providers, proptech businesses and tenant representatives to discuss the market and available opportunities.
Tim Rusbridge, creator of RPM said, “Finding retail space for your new or growing business can be a long, drawn out process – researching locations, speaking to landlords, touring the various spaces, negotiating the lease. And that is before you move in and start the fit out. It takes months. RPM aims to disrupt the industry, offering a faster, more efficient route to completion.
“Our aim is simple,” he said, “To be the single most time and cost-effective way to meet leading landlords, learn from those who have successfully done what you want to do, get the inside scoop on the latest and best retail opportunities out there and set your retail business firmly on the path to growth.”
With the success of the inaugural Sydney event, RPM has announced dates for two more events next year: 11 May, 2023 in Melbourne, and 14 September, 2023 in Sydney.
RPM is Australia’s only retail leasing event and is free to attend for all retailers who wish to discuss their expansion plans, accelerate the acquisition of bricks-and-mortar stores, grow their existing portfolio, discover new developments and network with industry peers.
