What gets the store going

What we need to start the store

Lease and unit drawings

Lease and unit drawings

The tenancy and the shell plan define the area, frontage, and any rent-free fit-out window driving the schedule.

Mall tenant fit-out manual

Mall tenant fit-out manual

The centre's design criteria set the rules for shopfront, signage, and services that every drawing must satisfy.

Brand and store guidelines

Brand and store guidelines

Franchise or brand standards specify fixtures, materials, and colours so the unit matches the chain's other stores.

Product and category plan

Product and category plan

Knowing what you sell and in what proportions shapes the shelving, display, and storage the layout needs.

Signage artwork

Signage artwork

Logo files and signage specifications let us fabricate the storefront to brand and to mall dimensions.

Opening-date target

Opening-date target

Your intended trading start fixes the programme backward from launch so every trade is sequenced to meet it.

Schedule & opening risks

Schedule, cost drivers, and what risks the opening

Schedule, cost drivers, and what risks the opening

How the schedule is built

The programme is planned back from your opening date, with mall approval as the pivot and fixtures and merchandising staged to finish before stocking.

  • Design and merchandising plan
  • Mall fit-out approval
  • Fixtures, signage, and handover

What sets the store budget

Cost follows the unit area, the quality of bespoke fixtures and shopfront, and how exacting the brand specification on materials and finishes is.

  • Unit area and frontage
  • Bespoke fixtures and shopfront
  • Brand-specified materials

What risks the opening date

Launches slip when mall approval is queried, when a custom shopfront element is delayed, or when the rent-free fit-out window is shorter than the build needs.

  • Queries on mall approval
  • Delayed bespoke shopfront items
  • A tight rent-free build window

Retail done right

Where our retail work goes further

Footfall-to-sales conversion design

We use sightlines, focal displays, and till placement to move browsers toward purchase, treating the layout as a selling tool.

Franchise-spec compliance

For branded chains we build to the franchisor's exact fixture and finish standards so the unit passes brand sign-off first time.

Refit without losing trading days

For an existing store, we phase or overnight the refurbishment so you keep selling while the space is upgraded.

Mall-standard compliance

We hold the build to the centre's technical and safety requirements so the handover inspection does not delay your launch.
