Designing for the next generation of retail development10th May 2007International Coffee Organisation, LondonAs you will no doubt be aware, delivering a retail scheme that meets the requirements of all the key stakeholders and creates a space that people want to go to is not always easy. Small town retail developments in particular bring with them some specific issues that need to be resolved as part of their design. Environmental issues are playing an increasingly important role in retail development, and consideration needs to be given to energy consumption and the impact on the environment. To find out more about how to succeed in this burgeoning sector, especially with regard to what developers and clients are looking for from a retail regeneration scheme, attend Retail Regeneration 2007.
