The challenge
A major retail landlord from Europe was seeking to build its international brand presence with a new portfolio in the Greater Toronto area. The Cushman & Wakefield European operations introduced this client to the Cushman & Wakefield LePage Toronto office.

Our solution
A team of Cushman & Wakefield LePage agents, including representation from both the Retail Group and the Investment Sales Group, met with this buyer to pinpoint high streets that met their criteria in Toronto, including Queen Street West, Yonge Street and Bloor Street West. A proactive campaign to uncover assets within the selected nodes was then undertaken.

The results
Cushman & Wakefield LePage has closed a number of deals with this buyer over the past two years, culminating in the sale of 110 Bloor Street West, an irreplaceable asset in one of Toronto’s most prestigious shopping districts.
