DEVELOPING A FOOD HALL?
WE’LL INTRODUCE CONCEPTS REQUIRED FOR SUCCESS
Food Halls 101 will provide you with critical information and guidance to help you understand how to transform your project into a community center, ultimately satisfying your financial and long-range value creation expectations. We can share our experience in placemaking to introduce you to the development details unique to modern food retail. We also focus on a triple bottom line approach believing that commitment to local community – vendors, employees, and the local and regional food chains – helps to build an institutional consumer gathering place, thereby creating a stronger and more stable profit center. From evaluating the potential of a particular location, through market design, licensing, tenanting, to operational oversight and day-to-day management, we can help you create a successful, sustainable food hall that has the power to change the dynamics of your real estate and activate or re-energize the community around it.
