Rapid development of a professional retail market in Ukraine facilitated decision of Colliers International Ukraine to establish a retail property department. The Company took the leading position in this field due to high professionalism of its specialists, their deep knowledge of local market and unique innovative approaches.

Colliers International was the first company to implement the most innovative and professional shopping & entertainment centers in Ukraine such as Globus, Mandarin Plaza and Karavan. Our consultants were directly involved in all the stages of the above projects: from marketing research and concept development to lease all retail space available as an exclusive leasing agent. Today these projects are considered to be the most professional and successful ones on the market.

Our portfolio includes the range of retail projects, both the already commissioned ones and those that are being under construction, in such cities as Kyiv, Kharkiv, Dnipropetrovs’k, Donets’k, Zaporizhya, Kryvy Ryh, Odessa, Mykolayiv, Lviv, Vinnytsya, Khmelnytsky and others.

The key to success for any retail project is a professional concept. It maximizes advantages of a particular retail project, while balancing the interests of landlord and tenant and ultimately ensuring customers’ satisfaction. The right tenant mix and the right proportion between the number and the quality of anchor tenants is also an important issue. At the same time, the interests of small retailers should not be overlooked or underestimated. The implementation of these tasks requires professionals, who can think conceptually, grasp market trends and synergistically apply ideas from different areas of knowledge. In addition, it would require deep understanding of the local retail market, its needs and directions as well as good links with international retailers and awareness of their expansion plans.

The retail department of Colliers International offers a complete service package to their clients, including:

• market research
• concept development
• lease, sale and purchase of retail property
• representation of landlord’s/tenant’s interests
• valuation of retail property
