Retail rents inched up while space prices slipped in Q3

Vacancy rate jumped 6.5% last quarter.

Meanwhile, retail rents inched up by 0.1% in the Q3, moderating from the 0.6% increase in Q2.

The amount of occupied retail space increased by 15,000 sqm in Q3, while the stock of retail space increased by 52,000 sqm. As a result, the island-wide vacancy rate of retail space rose to 6.5% in the period, compared to 5.9% at the end of the second quarter.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
