The 2022 edition of the Urbis Shopping Centre Benchmarks is now available. Subscribe today to shape tomorrow!

The Urbis Shopping Centre Benchmarks has been essential reading for the retail and shopping centre industry for more than 31 years.

We have a record number of centres from across the country included in the sample this year, with 465 centres reporting $74.3 billion worth of turnover. The results are showing a strong rebound in shopping centre performance following two years of COVID-19 impacts, with demand for retail largely returned to pre-COVID-19 levels.

Our interactive dashboard is back with all of the details you need to better understand and benchmark your shopping centres’ performance against multiple metrics.

The Benchmarks series draws on our property economics and market research expertise to provide an accurate picture of shopping centre performance and tenant mix across Australia. We identify the fastest growing specialty categories, outline the size and composition of centres across Australia, and provide insight into the evolution of shopping centres including the impact of international mini-major stores and non-retail uses.

This year, through the continued cooperation of the major participants in the Australian Shopping Centre industry, we include a record number of centres in the sample, including all Australian Real Estate Investment Trusts and major ownership groups.
