As consumers may slow down spending on big ticket items if a recession hits, they will still likely keep up spending on groceries, dining and entertainment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople really value those experiential types of events and stores,\u201d said Nicole Larson, manager, National Retail Research at Colliers. \u201cEven with the word recession being thrown around, we have heard from so many retailers since the beginning of this year looking to expand nationally and also internationally.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1004663618\" style=\"width: 224px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2023\/05\/Sandy-Sigal-Headshot-2023.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1004663618\" data-attachment-id=\"1004663618\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/retail-leasing-trends-to-watch-in-2023-beyond\/sandy-sigal-headshot-2023\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2023\/05\/Sandy-Sigal-Headshot-2023.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"571,800\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS 5D Mark III&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1620925686&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;102&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;1250&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.003125&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Sandy Sigal Headshot 2023\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Sandy Sigal, President &#038; CEO, NewMark Merrill Cos.

However, due to the cyclical nature of real estate, Wilson says the market will find a way to balance itself. \u201cSupply and demand always in time find equilibrium,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<h2>Who is driving demand, who is taking a backseat?<\/h2>\n<p>Throughout the country, value retailers demonstrate massive strength in terms of leasing activity, experts agreed. Whether it be value clothing, value mass merchants or value grocery, the demand for space is strong. These value stores are common household names: Target, Ross, Marshalls, TJ Maxx, 5 Below, Trader Joe&#8217;s. This trend even extends to value gyms like Planet Fitness. The quick service restaurant (QSR) and restaurant space retailers are also seeing high leasing transaction volumes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cClearly, the food and restaurant operators in this country have really made haste since COVID-19 and are continuing to do so,\u201d Wilson said.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1004663607\" style=\"width: 235px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2023\/05\/Nicole-Larson-National-Manager-of-Retail-Research-Colliers.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1004663607\" data-attachment-id=\"1004663607\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/retail-leasing-trends-to-watch-in-2023-beyond\/nicole-larson-national-manager-of-retail-research-colliers\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2023\/05\/Nicole-Larson-National-Manager-of-Retail-Research-Colliers.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"600,800\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Nicole Larson, National Manager of Retail Research, Colliers\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Nicole Larson, National Manager of Retail Research, Colliers.

Larson told <em>CPE <\/em>that recent Colliers data shows that restaurant visits saw an 18 percent year-over-year growth in March 2023 in terms of foot traffic. With more foot traffic comes more income and further leasing opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>Another common segment with high foot traffic numbers that experts agree is doing extremely well is grocery. Grocery retailers are expanding to new markets, exploring opportunities where consumer migration patterns are happening and will pick up business should the economy continue to slow.<\/p>\n<p>However, not all companies are driving up leasing activity numbers across the nation. For example, while specialty fitness and spa services are doing well, full-sized health clubs are taking a step back, multiple sources noted. Similarly, there are fewer movie theater deals being done.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEntertainment-themed retail used to be dominated by theaters,\u201d Wilson explained. \u201cNow they&#8217;re not. They&#8217;re dominated by top golf and more experiential retail\u2026 The consumer wants to be entertained and entertainment-themed retailers are out there trying to figure out ways to entertain them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The reasons behind why certain players are driving demand today when others were driving leasing demand last year is, in every case, highly nuanced.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is hard to pin an overall \u2018why\u2019 to leasing demand among retailers, but our global Live-Work-Shop report found that, post pandemic, people are living their lives much more deliberately,\u201d Brandon Isner, head of Retail Research for the Americas at <strong>CBRE<\/strong>, told <em>CPE<\/em>. \u201cThey are thinking more quality over quantity. Retailers which offer an authentic product will thrive and will continue growing.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Spaces retailers are keen on<\/h2>\n<p>Deciding on a specific type of retail space that is most sought-after is highly subjective, but there are some general trends throughout the nation as to what retailers prefer. In urban areas, Wilson explained that both big and small box spaces are popular. Typical big box retail companies have been seeking space in urban markets for some 20 years due to its typically high-density, high-income nature. However, these spaces come with constraints.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe impediments for big box retailers (in urban areas) is supply, as the supply is constrained by land values, by competition from non-retail uses like residential and very much by municipal impositions, zoning restrictions, red tape, bureaucracy and all the rest of it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1004663610\" style=\"width: 235px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2023\/05\/Brandon-Isner.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1004663610\" data-attachment-id=\"1004663610\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/retail-leasing-trends-to-watch-in-2023-beyond\/brandon-isner\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2023\/05\/Brandon-Isner.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"600,800\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Brandon Isner\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Brandon Isner, Americas Head of Retail Research, CBRE.

The bigger the project, the more foot traffic because people tend to like to shop where they can spend several hours.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Although it is still comparatively cheaper for retailers to locate in shopping centers as opposed to malls, as more companies move to these types of areas, rental rates are increasing, Larson explained. In the first quarter of this year, shopping centers had a 1.3 percent increase in rates while malls saw a 0.7 percent uptick, according to the same report. Experts don\u2019t see this trend going away.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome retailers which have been traditionally mall-based are thinking of closing underperforming stores in malls and re-opening in more suburban-based open air centers, often grocery-anchored,\u201d Isner explained. \u201cThat \u2018everyday\u2019 foot traffic you find in a grocery store is quite desirable to retailers. Fitness centers are also a great co-tenant.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As neighborhood, strip-center and community formats continue to increase in popularity among retailers, having several size layouts and prototypes is becoming crucial to many retail business plans.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA lot of retailers are looking at being much more flexible and more nimble and customizing their storefronts based on the type of project,\u201d Solanki said. \u201cSo, whether it&#8217;s a power center, lifestyle, grocery-anchored only or a mall or outlet, they are looking to create this more customized approach.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Retail leasing activity across the nation<\/h2>\n<p>Following domestic migration is one way to tell where retailers want to be. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.us.jll.com\/en\/trends-and-insights\/research\/office-research-snapshot-04-05-2023\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Data recently released<\/a> by the Census Bureau and JLL shows that demographic momentum for the nation\u2019s major urban cores is picking up. The report shows that 74 percent of national central business district inventory saw positive momentum for domestic migration in the past year.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1004664036\" style=\"width: 235px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1004664036\" data-attachment-id=\"1004664036\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/retail-leasing-trends-to-watch-in-2023-beyond\/wilson-chris-bw\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2023\/05\/Wilson-Chris-BW.png\" data-orig-size=\"600,800\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Wilson-Chris BW\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Chris Wilson, National Agency Lead, Retail, JLL.

Houston currently leads in retail construction, while Austin is in the top 10 for retail leasing activity, Larson said. Phoenix, Miami and Orlando, Fla., are also in high demand.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are varied reasons on why a market will outperform,\u201d said Isner. \u201cPopulation growth is a big piece, but so is the strength of the local economy, tourism and net migration. Tertiary markets have experienced significant growth in population over the last several years, due to net migration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In terms of business strategies, locations, store sizes and property types, retailers now need to be flexible. When there isn\u2019t space in urban markets, they can find the right locations in dense suburban markets. While cities are expected to see strong leasing activity, so are the areas around them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis whole opti-channel approach is what we are really talking about this year,\u201d said Solanki. \u201cIt&#8217;s not portfolio optimization. It&#8217;s much more than that because there are so many new channels in terms of how the store can act as a sales generator and a revenue generator.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Experts elaborate on the sector\u2019s performance, who&#8217;s driving activity and what a recession could bring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3006,"featured_media":1004663072,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21784,22251,23891,21742,21749,51037],"tags":[32789,35498,32763,32796,33530,50999,34942],"class_list":["post-1004663071","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-brokerage","category-in-focus","category-national","category-latest","category-retail","category-trends","tag-cbre","tag-colliers","tag-colliers-international","tag-jll","tag-national-retail-federation","tag-newmark","tag-newmark-merrill-companies"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) -
