Retail Focus 8/7/22 – Retail from a City Leader’s Perspective; Wayfair Swims Upstream
Our interview guest is Jim Paine, mayor of Superior, Wisconsin, who joins our show to discuss retail from the perspective of a city leader—particularly as it pertains to small- and mid-sized markets. He touches on his changing views towards big box retail, making an area attractive to national retailers, and how Superior has endeavored to diversify their retail landscape. In news, National Retail Properties continues to see positive numbers in retail occupancy, and Wayfair takes it on the chin during a difficult Q2.
