Retail Now, in association with The BCSC, is a Property Weeks’ new virtual event that will examine the changing landscape covering the high street, out of town retail, shopping centre developments, supermarket cities, and the effect of changing consumer trends on retail property as a whole.
With green shoots in the economy, the retail property market is seeing new opportunities open up, however significant challenges remain.
