Landlords
Underused retail space presents a strong commercialisation opportunity for retail landlords. High-footfall areas within shopping centres and retail parks often generate no income, despite high customer visibility and movement.
Access Point enables you, the landlord, to monetise these areas through professionally managed commercialisation, delivering flexible, short-term income without impacting long-term leasing strategy or asset integrity.
Promotional space allows the temporary activation of malls, concourses, entrances, atriums, walkways, and external parking spaces. Activity is typically delivered by established consumer brands, pop-up retailers, experiential marketing teams, and fully compliant mobile catering operators (where applicable). All activity is short-term, controlled, and fully reversible.
A fully managed model ensures all promotional activity is approved in advance and supported by robust governance, including insurance, health and safety, risk management, and operational compliance. Landlords retain full oversight while benefiting from a simple, low-risk route to additional revenue.
Beyond income generation, well-curated promotional activity enhances the customer experience, increases dwell time, supports existing tenants, and introduces variety and relevance to retail destinations—making promotional space a strategic asset optimisation and commercialisation tool, not just a revenue stream.
Effective commercialisation of unused space relies on strong governance and seamless delivery. Access Point manages the entire booking process from initial enquiry through to on-site delivery, ensuring every activation is approved, compliant, and aligned with the landlord’s asset strategy.
All bookings are centrally managed and scheduled to avoid conflict with existing tenants, trading patterns, or operational requirements. Access Point oversees operator vetting, insurance, RAMS, licensing, and health and safety compliance, ensuring all promotional activity meets required standards before trading commences.
This structured approach allows landlords to generate additional income from underused retail space while maintaining full control, minimising risk, and ensuring consistent, professional delivery across every campaign.

Speaking to a customer at the initial point of interest is a great way to build brand loyalty and makes your venue more appealing to potential promoters. We are not saying this is necessarily a better way of engaging, but as a way of selling your venue to customers, this continues to be a great tool.
Whilst most companies are reluctant to share specific campaign feedback with us, the reason we are still here over a quarter of a century after starting out is the number of other landlords that return to use our commercial solutions for marketing their venues in collaboration with the ongoing multi-channel campaigns.
