The retail program opened with a keynote from Gavin Duane of Colliers on the forces reshaping Australian retail property. Ramesh Subramanian of MA Financial Group, Angela Bonnefin of Retail Strategy Group and Sam Hatcher of JLL then joined Adam Di Marco to work through how the sector is trading now and what that means for buyers.

Charbel Hazzouri and Anthony El-Hazouri, co-founders of Revelop, closed the program in conversation on how they have built one of the country’s most active retail development and ownership groups.

Premium and A-grade CBD offices continue to attract tenant and investor demand, while existing retail centres present opportunities for repositioning amid high construction costs and limited retail floor space.

Both discussions highlighted how asset quality, supply constraints and changing market dynamics are shaping acquisition decisions across commercial property.
