We have released a report today introducing a brand new metric developed to measure resilience across the retail and leisure market. In this latest analysis, we use 10 years of granular occupancy data to review the 'survival rate' of stores across the country.
We define ‘survival rate’ as the percentage of units within a certain cohort (location type, retail and leisure category or brand) which remain operational 1 year, 3 years and 5 years from the date of opening.
e.g. Analysis has shown that there has been a drop in businesses that survive for longer than 5 years, decreasing from 67.2% in 2015 to 62.5% in 2019.
This facilitates understanding of how resilient different store types/brands and locations are by benchmarking the average length of occupation for a group of premises against others. This measure will facilitate lenders, property managers, asset managers and funds to review investments, looking at the relative strengths and covenants of each retailer.

Ronald will then be joined by Tom Berry of CBRE and together they will take questions from delegates, prompting discussion and sharing best practices from within the sector.
