We Get Retail

As a result of the Panic of 2008 and the Great Recession of 2009, the consumer has entered an era of thrift.  Thus, we as players in the shopping center arena find it critical to understand what is happening with each retailer. Given Weiner’s 15 years of experience managing a chain of 159 clothing stores, he understands retailer profitability and risk factors.  He uses this knowledge to identify opportunities for investment and how to avoid areas of potential risk.

This is what sets Weiner Development Corporation apart – our intimate knowledge of the retail and restaurant industries and their growth patterns allow us to have insight into how to capture the decreasing number of retailers in markets and provide the investor the most handsome and secure returns on his shopping center investments.

As for retailers and restaurant tenants, WDC’s Research Philosophy focuses on company and industry analysis across all segments and geographies. We know where retailers want to go and how to make them the most successful when they get there.

With regards to analyzing existing shopping center acquisition opportunities, our Research Philosophy helps determine the reliability of rent streams by determining the strength and profitability of each retailer within that shopping center. We then focus on downside risk, financially stressing a potential shopping center acquisition to identify the potential for rent slippage and the capital needs for tenant improvement and maintenance.

Finally, we know that building or purchasing a shopping center is just the beginning of our relationship. WDC’s management services are efficient and effective. We guarantee that our centers are clean, safe and secure places that are designed and maintained for today’s shopper.
