Very much enjoyed the first joint Green Street | Local Data Company Round-Table Breakfast yesterday, thanks to all those who made the effort to attend. It was great to have the opportunity to present insights from LDC’s latest report (link to download below), as well as hear from the room on all things retail, real estate and investing. Thanks to both Rob Virdee, CA and Ronald Nyakairu, who led the way on this, showcasing their latest research as well as their own observations and perspectives on the market. Special credit to Rob, anyone who can make a discussion on CapEx considerations genuinely entertaining, deserves it!   Very much appreciate everyone not only attending but being vocal on their thoughts, experiences and predictions for UK retail, it made for a really great discussion.   Huge thanks also to Taylor Hilland, Sam Mercado and Erin Reitner Harris for organising.
