Retail Property Operators in Australia Industry Market Research Report Now Updated by IBISWorld
PRWeb - Mon Jan 28, 9:35PM CST
Poor consumer confidence, fierce competition from online shopping and an oversupply of retail property are the challenges currently faced by retail property operators. The retail property market showed signs of improvement in 2010-11 after a soft period during the downturn in the Australian economy. However, retail conditions faltered somewhat in late 2011-12 as global economic uncertainty weighed on consumer spending, and this has continued into 2012-13. Industry revenue is estimated to rise 0.9% in 2012-13. According to IBISWorld industry analyst Tim Stephen, "while occupancy is good as a result of leasing incentives and low rental prices, property values are flat". IBISWorld estimates revenue for the Retail Property Operators industry will decline slightly over the five years through 2012-13, at a compound annual rate of 0.1% to reach $30 billion.
