Retail asset management has evolved significantly in recent years. It is no longer just about administering a commercial space; it now requires a 360º vision that integrates operations, maintenance, leasing, financial analysis and asset enhancement strategies.
This comprehensive approach allows retail assets to improve performance, strengthen their offer and maintain high occupancy levels. At OGS, we have more than three decades of experience applying this model, managing assets with consistently strong occupancy and supporting landlords and operators throughout every phase of the asset lifecycle.
One of the key elements of stability in any retail asset is the relationship between the landlord, the management company and the tenants. At OGS, we have worked for more than ten years with clients such as Vastned, MDSR, Shaftesbury and Eroski. This continuity enables long-term decision-making, trend anticipation and consistent strategic planning.
Mutual trust helps each asset evolve solidly, adapting to market changes and reinforcing its competitive position.
The opening of new retail spaces has become increasingly complex. Technical coordination, tenant onboarding, commercial mix planning and communication between all teams require experienced and precise management.
At OGS, we have recently led key processes such as the pre-opening, opening and first year of operation of Nexum, as well as the commercialisation of the Paseo del Mar retail park in Torrevieja, scheduled for spring 2026 and already close to full occupancy prior to opening.
Both projects highlight the importance of seamless coordination between construction teams, technical departments and operators to ensure a strong start.
The retail sector is no longer simply talking about digitalisation; it is now focused on how to apply innovation strategically. Technology must support customer experience, operational efficiency and the long-term sustainability of the asset.
Key focus areas include:
• Advanced data analysis for decision-making
• Tools that optimise maintenance and energy consumption
• Mobility strategies and EV charging points
• Sustainability plans aligned with landlord objectives
Sustainability is no longer a value-added feature — it is an essential pillar for maintaining competitiveness.
The content we have recently shared in industry publications reflects this global perspective, grounded in experience, operational insight and data.
