Today's News and comment for all retail Architects, Store Planners, Designers and Retailers

After total destruction of this web site some months ago by a thoughtless individual, just because he could, we are now fully back on line and back to being as busy as ever.

From this office, overlooking the beautiful Hauraki Gulf in Auckland New Zealand, it is hard to be vindictive, just sorry for the wayward individual who destroyed twelve years of history in less than a second. Good websites as you know are the by-product of being found, and this new site has already begun to pop up on the first page in one form or another, we are working on that. Our original site was placed with 5 above the fold on Google every time when Mall Design and Retail Designers and Mall designers were keyed in. Thanks to Google they still pick up our Chairman Mr John B Foreman by referring back to his personal website http://www.retailplan.info where his e-books on Mall and Retail design are listed.

We hope that you gain from our website and find it pleasing, informative and easy to navigate, if you need any specific information please let us know by email and we will do our very best to provide.

Here is some great NEWS for this season for all Retail Architects, Retail Designers, Store Planners and Mall Owners.

Over the last six months John's site has given away absolutely FREE; templates for the design and services planning of Malls similar to those that we use as the first tool when approaching a new Mall project. This has generated a stream of buyers for his e-books, so as a thank you to the retail design industry John has made a substantial reduction on cost for a limited time as a Seasonal Blessing to all, so now you really should flip across to http://www.retailplan.info and make good use of this 50% reduction on all or just one of the six books, your choice.

John's recommendation would be to purchase the Regional Mall and the Retail store books to start.

On the home front John has been sought by all major print media recently for comment on why we become shopaholics at Christmas.

Offshore we have completed the infrastructure design and testing for an on-line supermarket for the middle east, another invention of our Chairman and just last week we began discussions with the owners of a new Departmental Store for the middle east and John and Richard are flying out on the 5th January to complete the first stage of negotiations, we all wish them good luck.

Merry Christmas, Feliz Navidad, Buon Natale, Seasonal blessings and a Prosperous New Year to all.
