Independent Property Developments, Big or Small, are Creative, Best In Class Food Precincts.

Future Food gets to work on large projects, and we love the city shaping scope of a big development. Yet some of the more interesting projects that we've been working on over the last 24-36 months have been those from private independent developers.

The level of entrepreneurship, creativity, artistic direction, attention to detail and placemaking makes these vibrant projects and developments, truly exciting platforms to work with. Our recent partnership with companies like Perri Projects and Pellicano have allowed us to contribute to more boutique personalised projects. Creating a food strategy and operating model for these developments requires a subtle approach that considers each development through the perspective of its target users.

In the changing retail landscape Neighbourhood shopping centres are facing competition from online shopping, high street food deliveries like Uber & Deliveroo, high street dining precinct and the inevitable introduction of smart casual/ family restaurants within the building footprint of stand-alone cinemas and other entertainment precincts.

Smart Casual and Family Dining precincts are no longer the BASTAN of the larger malls and retail precincts. The smaller malls are starting to recognise the many benefits of increasing the food GLA and the development of dining precincts. They want to include roof tops and dining lanes.
