CBRE has once again examined the current attitudes and expansion plans of the leading retailers across the region. This third survey was carried out in the summer of 2011, against the backdrop of the unfolding eurozone crisis, so it is no surprise that retailers are still taking a cautious approach to expansion, with some waiting for stability to return to the financial markets before committing to new stores. However, this has not stopped retailers seeking new opportunities in 2012 - far from it.
