Redevelopment of shopping areas

The real estate portfolio of Marcan Vastgoed mainly consists of retail properties dating from the reconstruction period of Rotterdam. These retail properties had received little attention since their construction. Marcan has implemented the policy, and taken the lead in this, to completely renovate and redevelop the properties. In this process, not only cosmetic renovations were carried out, but the shell was also fully renovated. This policy has ultimately resulted in a better and attractive use of the retail properties, particularly on the Meent, Pannekoekstraat, Goudsesingel, Mariniersweg and the Hoogstraat.

Necessary concept development and industry policy

The policy of Marcan Vastgoed is to create sustainable streets with good traffic and a high-quality consumer. When Marcan purchased the portfolio, this was not yet the case. Policy and investments were needed to get the real estate to where it is now.

To improve the area to what it is now, as mentioned, the necessary investments are needed and sector definition is required. Having a broad portfolio means that we can determine in collaboration with the Municipality of Rotterdam, the real estate agency and tenants in which area a potential tenant fits best. Marcan has an advisory role in this, but also likes to be surprised by innovative tenants and entrepreneurs with a strong vision. The implemented policy of Marcan is therefore becoming increasingly visible over the years. It requires a policy of purchase and redevelopment and the careful study of the traffic in an area. This can differ per street or part of a street.

This sector definition by Marcan has also ensured that the streets in which investments have been made have also become areas where more and more entrepreneurs want to establish themselves and the attention of interested tenants has increased. In order to maintain and improve these attractive shopping areas, more is needed than just renovating, renting and maintaining. It requires attention and involvement. It is a continuous process in which Marcan Vastgoed has good contact with the municipality of Rotterdam and other stakeholders.

Sustainability and Energy Labels

Marcan Vastgoed strives to make its real estate portfolio as energy-efficient and sustainable as possible. The result is that currently 100% of all commercial spaces have energy label A or higher. In collaboration with owner associations and other owners, we are committed to further sustainability of complexes, such as the installation of green roofs and investing in insulation. Because of this collaboration, Marcan is increasingly given the opportunity to contribute to sustainable projects and to make its property future-proof.
