Managed Services
Retainer advisory and end-to-end real-estate execution — our team as an extension of yours.
A dedicated advisory relationship
Global Markets offers flexible retainer-based services that give clients ongoing access to our full suite of expertise. Through this model, your team can engage with ours continuously to plan, strategize, execute, and monitor market activities. With Global Markets on retainer, you gain more than insights — you gain a strategic partner committed to measurable results.
Advisory Managed Services
The retainer structure provides a dedicated advisory relationship — covering data analysis, market research, site selection, expansion strategy, tenant-mix planning, and performance benchmarking. Whether you're refining your positioning, evaluating new opportunities, or course-correcting against market dynamics, our team becomes an extension of yours.
Real Estate Managed Services
End-to-end managed real-estate services support brands and developers across their expansion and leasing journeys — from identifying opportunities to executing lease contracts. They are especially suited to clients who want a dedicated, ongoing partnership, structured across five operational pillars:
1. Brokers Coordination
We compile all available store opportunities submitted by brokers — capturing unit size, rent, key money, floor plans, and broker credentials — then rank each listing against your brand requirements so decision-makers focus on the most strategic options.
2. Site Scouting
We conduct site visits and liaise with landlords across trade areas to source available units, pre-filtered to fit your expansion strategy, footprint criteria, and operational needs.
3. Site Evaluation
Offerings are rigorously assessed using unified, data-driven metrics — including Umbrella's Site Analysis tool — so location decisions rest on performance benchmarks, demographics, and commercial viability, not assumptions.
4. Site Acquisition Coordination
We handle acquisition logistics with landlords and legal teams to finalize and execute lease agreements — a seamless handover from scouting to signing that minimizes delays and friction.
5. Expansion Strategy Development
By mapping supply-demand gaps, tracking current and upcoming real-estate projects, and layering in performance and demographic data, we help brands craft tailored expansion strategies that maximize commercial success.
Managed services build on the same field-collected foundation as our consultancy services and the Umbrella intelligence platform.
