Shed that negative thinking

Article Abstract:

Investment funds have been careful to invest in retail warehouse sites which have A1 (non-food) planning permission as these allow the sale of a wider range of goods. The funds have now begun to accept sites which have restricted permission. Obtaining permission to sell food allows supermarkets to operate but this is not usually given. Investment funds need to examine carefully the wording on planning documentation to find out if it stipulates what can be sold or merely outlines what cannot be sold. The latter is more favourable as it allows greater scope.
