Rents in prime floor space in retail to rise 2.5%-3.5%: report

This is due to tightening vacancy rates and revival of the economy.

With health occupier demand, tight vacancy rates and tight supply, the retail property market is seen to recover in the next five years.

According to JLL’s Singapore retail property market outlook from 2022 to 2026, rents of prime floor space in retail assets will move up by 2.5% - 3.5% per annum.

This is on the back of rising occupiers in retail malls in good locations given the economic revival and easing of border restrictions.

“Singapore’s commitment to reopening the economy, alongside the nation’s pandemic preparedness, will continue to lift retailer confidence. Consumption growth, underpinned by rising wages and a recovery in tourism, should encourage business expansion and support healthy occupier demand in the medium-term,” said JLL.

Supply pipeline of retail space will also remain tight until 2026, at less than 1% of existing stock yearly.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
