LISTEN: Following its best quarter yet and the launch of a new tool to streamline renting retail space, Appear Here sees opportunities in the retail market post-Brexit.
The company says it has had more than 200% growth in new London spaces this month, compared with the same time last year.
Appear Here has also released a new tool, the Landlord Dashboard, expected to further boost its growth as more landlords sign up.
The tool is already being used by 25% of the landlords which have partnered with the company, such as Land Securities, British Land, Hammerson and Transport for London.
The dashboard has features such as “idea profiles” where landlords can store product images, data and brand information. It also allows users to rate and review space to help landlords to cater their space to what tenants are looking for.
A portfolio management feature allows landlords to manage all their spaces in one place and get a real-time view of availability.
Performance data shows financial summaries and real-time market updates based on season and occupation levels. This means rents can be set depending on demand.
This quarter kicked off a pivotal year for Appear Here as it began its global expansion with a launch in Paris which has seen 200 spaces listed on the platform.
The company says in the past 12 months it has launched more than 3,000 shops in London alone.
It now has 35,000 registered users, and lists 2,000 retail spaces.
