The Dutch leasing market is in a phase of cautious recovery. Retailers in the fashion and shoes segment had to deal with a hot summer. They seek a physical presence to support a true omni-channel platform with a seamless product offer for the consumer.

Upscale formats and value retailers are generally doing well, the middle segment is facing a decrease in sales.
