Retail in the city
A full programme to identify & connect with players and locations across Europe’s main cities.
Europe’s cities are built around vibrant central streets and districts where commerce, social life, and tourism naturally converge. This year, we are exploring how high streets provide visibility and prestige for brands with a dedicated area in Riviera 7, and a content focus with booklets and conferences.
For local brokers, owners and city representatives, this is the perfect opportunity to meet with thousands of strong retail brands looking for growth, present their assets, develop their network and create strong city centres.
Display your assets, share your ambitions, and be introduced to main retail streets across Europe’s major cities to network with their key owners and brokers.
High streets: where retail grows
According to the latest Codata study on the French market, 35.6% of retail spaces sampled are located on shopping streets, 23% in shopping centers, and 41.4% in retail parks.
Amid increasing revitalisation initiatives by local authorities and strong demand from brands for prime flagship locations, MAPIC is now placing the spotlight on High Street.
