Sydney’s retail-property conversation has a founder-led session on the agenda today, with Revelop cousins Charbel Hazzouri and Anthony El-Hazouri set to appear at the Retail Leaders Forum at Four Seasons Hotel Sydney.
The pair founded Revelop in 2008. The Urban Developer reports the privately owned group now holds more than 100 properties with more than 2,000 tenants, after recent acquisitions including Stanhope Village, Balgowlah Village and Forestway.
At the forum, Hazzouri and El-Hazouri are scheduled to join The Urban Developer founder and chief executive Adam Di Marco for a discussion about the group’s growth, acquisitions and repositioning approach. The conversation is part of a three-hour lunch program running from noon to 3pm. Other sessions are set to examine retail-property economics, investment and asset strategy.
For Sydney, the useful local angle is the concentration of neighbourhood centres in the story. Revelop’s current portfolio includes centres across the city and western suburbs, making the session less about a distant property play and more about the operators behind familiar retail destinations.
