We advise on a wide range of retail developments for developers, investors, and retailers.

As well as preparing planning applications for new or extended foodstores and retail warehouses, we have a strong track record in town centre developments, drawing from expertise across the firm to deal with the wide range of issues that complex sites present.

We also help our clients to maximise the value of their existing assets, for example by securing permission to extend ranges of goods where existing consents limit these, or for additional internal floorspace (mezzanines).

Our services include:

• Development Plan monitoring - monitoring emerging plans to safeguard the interests of landowners, developers, and operators;

• Opportunity Analyses – to identify through the planning system areas of opportunity for new development;

• Retail Impact Assessment - Preparation of Retail Impact Assessments to address local and national policy requirements; and

• Town Centre Regeneration - working with developers, investors, regeneration bodies and local authorities to promote the regeneration and expansion of town centres.
