In 2007 Polonia Property Fund II, managed by Peakside Polonia Management, acquired FASHION HOUSE Outlet Centre in Warsaw and two other schemes in Sosnowiec and Gdańsk the following year. FASHION HOUSE Group has continuously been managing the three centres, ensuring sustained growth in the value of these outlet assets. Despite some difficult economic indicators in Poland, 2013 has proved to be one of the most successful years for the Polish FASHION HOUSE Outlet Centres, with unprecedented increases in income.
The new Operational Contract is linked to a robust Business Plan which outlines a clear and distinct development for each of the Outlet Centres. This plan focuses on the following areas to ensure further value growth during the term of the agreement:
new premium tenants to further differentiate the Fashion House Brand mix;
new segmentation and targeting of key consumer groups;
innovation initiatives in all areas of the Outlet Management functions.
– This extension comes after a number of years of a successful working partnership during which FASHION HOUSE Group has been a reliable partner and demonstrated good understanding of our requirements – said Otis Spencer, President of Peakside Polonia Management. – We are excited to continue our cooperation with aim to provide both our tenants and customers with quality service.
