SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT: THE RETAIL NETWORK
April 6, 2010

| The worst is behind us in retail, and people are trading doom and gloom for optimism, says Kimco Realty's Joshua Weinkranz, The Fagen Group's Stu Fagen, and CB Richard Ellis' Jayson Siano, founders of our sponsor The Retail Network. One of the most positive signs is that outsiders are coming into our market—the New York metro has a high barrier to entry, they say, and they're finally touring with retailers who have been poking around for years. They've also seen retailers picking up vacant big boxes left behind by stores like Linens ‘n Things, Steve & Barry's, and Levitz, especially the health and fitness franchisees. |

| Smart retailers, especially mom-and-pops, are making their moves now, the founders say. But where and why? Find out by attending TRN's next event at The Cradle of Aviation in Garden City, Long Island on April 14th, where you can network with retailers, brokers, landlords, architects, engineers, and others in the sector. There will also be a chance to speed network with your peers, which has proved to be successful in the past—each say they've done deals with people they met at previous TRN events. Over 400 attendees are expected; click the ad on the right to learn more. |
