Summary

Introduction

Following a poor 2005, out-of-town retailers enjoyed a recovery in 2006 - their sales increased by 4.9%. A solid improvement in performance across the largest out-of-town categories underpinned the uplift. This report examines the latest changes in out-of-town retail. It details market sizes and trends, key issues, five year forecasts and profiles key retailers in the sector.

Scope

Analysis of the out-of-town market and the major out-of-town retail sectors and key players.
Insight into the key retail issues currently influencing the UK out-of-town sector.
A comparison of the leading 12 UK out-of-town retailers' performance.
A five year out-of-town market value and growth forecast including detailed analysis and future outlook.

Highlights

Out-of-town retailers enjoyed a recovery in 2006 following a challenging 2005. All sales through out-of-town stores increased by 4.9% during the year. That growth was more than twice the pace achieved by the town centre channel.

A solid improvement in performance across the largest out-of-town retail categories underpinned the uplift. But further expansion out-of-town by traditional high street players also lifted the market.

However, the outlook for the next five years looks relatively modest in comparison to its buoyant past performance. We forecast growth over the next five years of 26.0%. This compares with 30.4% between 2001 and 2006.
