Retail

Retail has been in the firm's DNA since its inception, with the development of the renowned Gallerias in Houston and Dallas, and the largest shopping complex in Catalonia, Spain. With more than six decades of experience in creating places for people to shop—including a great deal of ground-floor retail in major buildings—the firm is well acquainted with the wants and needs of retail tenants, what makes retail real estate attractive to consumers and how retail can be a desirable investment asset class.

Hines also has a significant retail acquisition and redevelopment platform covering a variety of retail property types, including mixed-use; high street; power centers; lifestyle centers; and outlet, grocery and enclosed malls. With ready capital as well as extensive leasing and marketing experience across all product categories, Hines continues to seek retail investment and development opportunities globally.
