Testimonial:

''To deliver Ormiston Town Centre Todd Property Group required a skilled and reliable team to deliver a broad range of retail and food & beverage tenancies. Tailor Inc worked alongside tenants, designers, fitout contractors, consultants and the Todd Property team to get the best result for all parties.

The project was made particularly challenging due to COVID restrictions and lockdowns which resulted in additional pressures on leasing and retailers. Tailor’s experience and expertise was invaluable in helping Todd Property and tenants troubleshoot the risks and issues that arose in this unique delivery environment.

In addition to the Tenancy works, Tailor Inc provided Todd Property with a client-side Senior PM who worked alongside the base build contractors, project managers and Leasing team to ensure our needs were fully met, both in the final eight months leading up to the opening, and the months following opening."
