ECSP announces partnership with RegioPlan Consulting and RegioData Research

The European Council of Shopping Places (ECSP) has today announced that it is partnering with RegioPlan Consulting, a consultancy firm providing advice to the real estate and retail professionals in the public and private sector on location and investment decisions; and its sister company RegioData Research, a market research firm providing regional economic data to the retail and real estate industry to help with better decision-making.  

Under the agreement, both partners will provide ECSP and its members access to data and market analytics on the pan-European retail property sector. Examples of information to be provided include figures on customer expenditure and purchasing power, use of online shopping, analysis into catchment areas, shopping centre databases, among others. The insights will help guide ECSP’s position papers and strategies going forward and will allow members to anticipate trends.

“We are excited to join forces with ECSP and share our international expertise based on facts and figures from our sister company RegioData, which will also team up with ECSP,” said Romina Jenei, CEO of RegioPlan Consulting. “We live in an ever-changing society and are ready to provide decision-makers with an optimal basis for market-orientated and forward-looking strategies and recommendations.”

Peter Wilhelm, Chairman of ECSP, also welcomed the partnership: “For an industry disproportionately impacted by the pandemic and facing systemic change as we respond to the climate crisis, access to high quality data will be critical. Without data, we will not be able to manage the risks and take advantage of the opportunities as a sector.”
