Where's the top shop
Article Abstract:
Tenants deciding to lease a high street shop as opposed to a unit in a shopping centre are likely to have more freedom to choose the external appearance of their shop. Service charges are likely to be less but also services will be fewer and the high street shop tenant will have to take a greater responsibility for the structural upkeep of their store. Shopping centre tenants will usually deal with one landlord for the whole centre and there are likely to be more facilities for customers, such as car parks. Other shops in the centre may also help to encourage more customers.
