Germany 2013
If you think you
know Germany,
prepare to
think again.
Welcome to Understanding Retail Destinations Germany 2013. Many of you
will know Germany as a prosperous economy that offers strong and stable
consumer purchasing power. But there’s so much more to this market,
which we hope to reveal in the following pages.
Inside this report you’ll find detailed analyses on 21 German cities. These range from major metropolises like Berlin and Munich
through to up-and-coming destinations that might be less familiar but which we believe are worth your consideration. You
can compare the characteristics and retail mix of all the main shopping environments within each city; plus there’s a wealth of
statistical information on the local economy, consumer catchments, key shopping centres and future development pipeline.
To support the city profiles we also provide an insider’s view of the dynamics that drive the retail leasing market – vital intelligence
for any retailer or investor considering entry to, or expansion within, the country. Furthermore, the publication contains feature
articles dedicated to the all-important fashion segment, the latest trends in the shopping centre environment and the burgeoning
market for factory outlet centres.
I hope you enjoy reading this report and that it gives you a fresh perspective on Europe’s biggest retail market; one which offers a
high street environment that is more widespread and diverse than anywhere else in this region. To find out more about any of the
points raised, get in touch with myself or any of the CBRE retail experts whose profiles appear throughout the publication.
Welcome to Germany!

The German
Retail Market
Retail is an important sector in the German economy. 16.4% of Germany’s
GDP is generated by German retail. In comparison, Germany’s renowned
automotive industry (production/sales), with companies including BMW,
Volkswagen and Mercedes, contributes only 8.1% to Germany’s total GDP.
This makes German retail an important employer. There are currently three
million people employed by approx. 400,000 retail companies, of which
approx. 1.3 million employees are employed full-time.

89.5% of the disposable income available to Germany’s population is
used for private consumption. This figure has risen steadily over the past

international operating retail chains. Owner-operated retail companies and
department stores have experienced a significant decline in market share
over the past decade, while big box retailers and chain store operators
on high streets and in shopping-centres have improved their position.
Whereas the department store business was affected by the insolvencies
of Karstadt, Hertie and Woolworth, owner-operated companies have
given up as a result of costs and productivity and a lack of subsequent
regulation. This development has motivated many wholesale brands to
develop their own retail businesses, which is increasing the diversity on
high streets and in shopping centres in Germany.

Today the German retail market is dominated by five major companies
which gain together 39% of the total domestic turnover. This is almost the
equivalent of the total food turnover generated in Germany with 37%. The
primary focus of these companies is food but some of them are also one of
the largest clothing retailers due to their complementary offer.

Diversification
As a number of retail formats reach a certain degree of market maturity,
they attempt to attract new customers and target groups by offering new
concepts. This either affects brands trying to drive sales from a basic level,
but also well established retail formats. The focus on certain target groups
has not only brought new diversity to the German retail market, it has also
put pressure on retailers attempting to reach out to the mass market.
Growing chain store business
To cope with these structural changes, chain store operators have a
distinct advantage over owner-operated or weak financed regional
groups. With a clear branding, strong financing and target group-focused
marketing strategy, they profit from economies of scale. This is one of the
reasons why the percentage of chain stores continues to rise in Germany’s
high streets and shopping centres.

The German
Fashion Market
Approximately 9% of Germany’s total retail turnover is spent on clothing and
home textiles, making it the second largest retail sector after food (37%).
Retail turnover in clothing and home textiles has continued to rise in recent
years, reaching an all-time peak of€59.7 billion in 2011, according to figures
published by the German Fashion Retail Association (BTE). This makes
Germany the world’s 4th largest apparel market, as well as the biggest in
Europe. Forecasts for 2012 are positive, with growth of 1.5% expected.
15
From a statistical point of view retail turnover for textiles is divided between
fashion and home textiles, with the fashion retail business counting for the
largest share.
As our chart shows, the 10 largest clothing and home textiles retailers
generate 35.8% of the annual textile turnover in Germany. The chart also
demonstrates that the German fashion segment is not only occupied by

Berlin
Berlin is the capital and the largest city of Germany. It is the seat of government and the base of the foreign embassies and
political and economic organisations. In addition to the public sector, Berlin’s economy is based on publishing, multi-media and
science; the city has three universities. Due to its colourful history, cultural and shopping tourism are also important economic
pillars, generating 25% of Berlin’s retail sales. Also worth noting: two of the largest German universities cluster vital scientific
communities around them.
Berlin is the largest retail market in Germany, with 38 shopping centres and two major retail areas (City West, City East)
competing for 3.5 million inhabitants. Both retail areas serve local residents in the formerly separated city halves, with a retail offer
which extends from mass market to luxury goods. A special feature is the area around Hackescher Markt, which is Germany’s
largest ‘trend location’.

Hamburg
Hamburg is the second largest city in Germany and the capital of the Hamburg Metropolitan Region with a population of 4.3
million. As a federal city state, it plays a special administrative role and is the economic centre of northern Germany. Hamburg’s
port is the largest in Germany, but other industries such as aviation, publishing, ship building and tourism are also important to
the city’s economy.
Hamburg’s retail market is mainly driven by the city centre, although there are also regional shopping centres such as the
Shopping-Centres Alstertal and Elbe Einkaufszentrum. The city centre has two distinct market areas. City Ost (east), with
Mönckebergstraße and Spitalerstraße, focuses on the mass-market. City West focuses more on luxury and upmarket concepts
and includes the high street Neuer Wall as the luxury location. The presence of several shopping arcades makes Hamburg an
exclusive and diversified shopping location.

Munich
Munich is the capital of the federal state of Bavaria and of the Munich Metropolitan Region with its population of 5.6 million.
Munich is regarded as the wealthiest major city in Germany and its economy is based on several service and manufacturing
industries. Six DAX companies, Allianz, BMW, Linde, MAN, Munich Re and Siemens, have their headquarters in Munich. Tourism
also plays an important role in the city’s economy due to the attractive city architecture and historic sites.
Munich’s retail market is dominated by the high streets in the city centre. Marienplatz and Kaufingerstrasse lie at the heart of
the retail market. Munich’s Maximilianstrasse is the most important luxury location in Germany. Several project developments,
including the Joseph-Pschorr-Haus, Palais an der Oper and Hofstatt, will bring new retail space to the market.

Cologne
Cologne is the largest city in the federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia and also in the Rhein-Ruhr Metropolitan Region. It is a
centre for German TV production, with the private RTL Group and the public WDR broadcasting group based there. Cologne is
famous for its annual carnival parades attracting millions of visitors, and for its cathedral which is Germany’s most highly visited
historic monument with 6.5 million visitors per year.
Cologne is regarded as a stronghold of mass market consumption. The high streets Hohe Strasse and Schildergasse dominate
the local retail market. Shopping centres play a minor role in Cologne. The streets are laid out in a rectangular form and provide
shoppers with the opportunity to browse through the shops in a convenient circuit. Cologne’s MIttelstraße boast a large number
of upmarket retailers and boutiques. Ehrenstraße – parallel to Mittelstraße – has been one of the first genuine trend locations in
Germany and tends to be copied in other cities.

Frankfurt is the capital of the Rhein-Main Metropolitan Region and is the largest city in the federal state of Hesse. Frankfurt is
the financial centre of Germany and is home to the European Central bank as well as all major banks , insurance firms and other
related service companies. The chemicals and aviation industries are major economic pillars due to the presence of Germany’s

main city in the Westphalia Region. It has been an industrial town for over two centuries and is still greatly influenced by the plant
manufacturing industry. It is also famous for its breweries, offering nine different beer brands.
Dortmund has been a trading centre since the Middle Ages. The so-called Hellweg, an important route for long-distance trade,
crossed through Dortmund. It is the eponym for today’s major high street Westenhellweg, which is one of the most highly
frequented high streets in Germany. Here, on the former production site of the Thier brewery, the Thier Galerie shopping centre
opened in 2011. Other high streets of interest are Ostenhellweg, Brückstraße and Kleppingstraße.

Essen is located in the Rhein-Ruhr-Region and, together with Cologne, Dortmund and Dusseldorf, forms the Rhein-Ruhr
Metropolitan Region with a population of around 11.7 million. Essen is home to a multitude of international company headquarters
including RWE, Evonik and Thyssen Krupp, and also to the retailers Deichmann, Karstadt and Aldi Nord, making the city an
important office location. Essen is also famous for its industrial heritage site Zeche Zollverein, which is a UNESCO world heritage

leipzig
Leipzig is the largest city in the federal state of Saxony and, together with Dresden, forms the Mitteldeutschland Metropolitan
Region with a population of 6.9 million. The economy of the city of Leipzig is based on transport and logistics, with Leipzig Airport
as the major air-cargo hub in eastern Germany. The central station in Leipzig is the largest terminal station in Europe and also
offers a wide variety of shops. Leipzig hosts the annual bookstore trade fair Leipziger Buchmesse, one of the most important
trade fairs in this field.
The major high streets are Peterstraße and Grimmaische Straße, which have a broad retail offer. One unusual feature of Leipzig’s
retail market is that its high streets are connected by several shopping arcades. The Höfe am Brühl shopping centre has opened
in autumn 2012 on the site of a former department store. Nova eventis and Paunsdorf Center are important centres for the whole
market, but are located out-of-town.

Dresden
Dresden is the capital of the federal state Saxony. The city has prominent historic monuments such as the Semper Oper, the
Castle, the Zwinger and the Frauenkirche which attract many tourists from Germany and abroad. Due to its location on the banks
of the River Elbe, the city is called the ‘Florence of the Elbe’. In addition to tourism and public administration, Dresden’s economy
is based on micro-electronics, information and bio-technologies, for which the technical university acts as an innovator.
The major high street in Dresden is Prager Straße, which is home to all major retailers. It also offers two shopping centres,
Altmarkt Galerie and Centrum Galerie, which have a broad retail offer of complementary products. Salzstraße and Altmarkt are
focused more on tourism and gastronomy, while Neumarkt currently attracts upmarket brands. The development of the brownfield site by the main railway station will release new retail space onto the market over the next few years.

Metropolitan Region with its population of 2.4 million. Its position on the River Rhein has allowed Mannheim to become the
leading location for the chemicals industry in Germany, together with its neighbouring city, Ludwigshafen. Mannheim is also
famous for its university, which places a particular emphasis on economics. The city is the only Quadratstadt [square city] in
Germany, as the city was planned in block format in the 18th Century.
The major retail location is the street Planken, which comprises all street squares with the letter P. This is home to all major
retailers, including the local fashion leader Engelhorn, which operates one of the largest fashion department stores in Germany.
Other streets of interest are Kurpfalzstraße, street O and Fressgass, where the Rhein-Neckar-Plaza shopping-centre will open in
2016.

Bonn
The Bundesstadt Bonn was Germany’s former seat of government until reunification. Nowadays, Bonn still has an important
role in the federal governmental structure, as the home of several ministries and many federal authorities. It also boasts the
headquarters of a number of former state-owned corporations, including Telekom AG and Deutsche Post AG. Furthermore, the
city was chosen as a UN seat. Bonn offers very attractive living conditions and enjoys positive population growth. In cultural
terms, Bonn has a high number of internationally-renowned museums.
Bonn’s retail market directly benefits from these positive conditions. Three inner-city squares are connected by major high streets
and act as cultural meeting points for Bonn’s citizens. The main street is Remigiusstraße, which is most popular with all major
retailers. Poststraße and Sternstraße are also important retail destinations.

AACHEN
Aachen, the most westerly of Germany’s cities, lies close to the Belgian and Dutch borders. Aachen, and the region around the
cities of Maastricht (NL) and Liège (B), forms the Euregio Maas-Rhein with 3.9 million inhabitants. The University of Technology
and its affiliated research institutes play a major role in the city’s economy. Aachen hosts the first German UNECSO world
heritage site, the Charlemagne Cathedral, which attracts 1.5 million visitors every year.
Aachen’s retail market benefits from shopping tourism from Belgium and the Netherlands. The major high street, Adalbertstraße,
and the streets in the medieval old town (Damengraben and Holzgraben, Krämerstraße, Großkölnstraße) form an attractive retail
market. The development of the Kaiserplatz Galerie shopping centre and the commercial complex Bel Etage will bring new retail
space to the market.

Freiburg
Freiburg is located in the southwest of Germany, close to the Swiss and French borders. The city enjoys the warmest climate
and most hours of sun in Germany and is therefore an important tourist destination. In addition to tourism, Freiburg is home to
a number of sunrise industries such as bio and solar technologies. The University of Freiburg, with its 31,000 students, is seen
as the leading science centre in this field. Visitor attractions include the cathedral and the small streams, or Bächle, which run
through the whole city.
Freiburg’s retail market benefits strongly from shopping tourism from Switzerland and France. The major high street is KaiserJoseph-Straße, which is home to all major retailers. Rathausgasse and other alleyways of the old town also boast an attractive
variety of shops.

well as the agreement of neighbouring cities. German high streets aren’t
Germany’s retail sector is – in contrast to other European countries – much
better developed. Indeed high streets are seen to compete successfully
with shopping centres.
As a reaction to the tougher local planning process, shopping centre
architecture in terms of urban integration, façade and mall design has
become more attractive in recent years, as examples like MyZeil, Frankfurt
or Schloss Arkaden Braunschweig illustrate. Increasing costs, mainly
caused by more expensive land acquisition in the inner-city context as well
as energy price inflation, have tended to push up shopping centre rents

 most relevant German shopping centre managers
It’s important to note that there is little publicly-available data on shopping
centres. Information on footfall, performance or customer profile can in
most cases only be provided by the respective centre manager – and often
nothing is forthcoming.
Nevertheless, good quality shopping centres can offer interesting
alternatives to high street environments in major German cities, where
retailer demand often exceeds supply.
224
From a retailer’s perspective, some basic trends in the shopping centre
scene are worth noting: first, tenant mix is vital to a shopping centre’s
success and centre managers are constantly in search of ways to optimise

A further important current trend concerns the role food and drink plays
within the shopping centre. We’ve seen a notable increase in space

courts, which boost sales productivity and emphasise an orchestrated

and attractive brands that shopping centres need to drive customer footfall.
Although rental levels in German shopping centres rarely reach those
of their high street counterparts, we generally find that centre managers
start their rental calculations with an ambitious base rent complemented
with threshold-based turnover rents. Indexation against the CPI is often
claimed to be carried out on a yearly basis. Finally, most German shopping
centres have advertising associations requiring an additional marketing
contribution of approximately €3.5 per sq m/month.

The German
Factory Outlet Centre
Market
There are currently ten factory outlet centres (FOCs) in Germany. From a
retailer‘s perspective they offer interesting opportunities to expand upon
conventional shopping locations: most offer a high class environment in
which to present a brand, one that is differentiated from a typical shopping
centre serving consumers’ short- to medium-term needs. They also provide
an additional distribution channel for surplus merchandise and, as such,
can play an important role in a national distribution strategy.
227
Germany is regarded as the foremost European market for outlet centre
expansion in the coming years. The size and stability of the retail market
as well as the low degree of competition from existing centres make the
country attractive for expansion.

That said, dealing with this issue has lately become more pragmatic, for
several reasons. First, FOCs still account for an almost negligible share
of overall retail turnover. Second, it’s not been possible to identify any
of the predicted harmful effects on inner-city shopping locations. Third,
the legal wrangling over the proposed enlargement of the Ochtrup FOC
prompted further discussion around the whys and wherefores of the federal
legislation.
Neighbouring countries have taken advantage of the previous reluctance
to sanction FOCs among German politicians by building some wellperforming FOCs in „offshore“ or so-called „beggar-my-neighbour“
locations designed to attract German customers. Among the most notable
of these schemes is the Roermond Designer Outlet, one of the best
performing outlet centres in Europe, which is allowed to open on Sundays
and counts roughly 90% of its clientele as coming from Germany.
There is not - as is the case in the shopping centre sector - a dominant
operator in the FOC sector. McArthurGlen, Value Retail and Neinver all
run centres in Germany as well as additional schemes in neighbouring
countries with a predominantly German catchment area.
The future development pipeline is packed with some 15 FOC projects,
indicating a veritable boom in the sector. While several of these projects
are unlikely to reach construction phase, we predict up to six or seven will
open in the coming years, equating to 84,900 sq m of new retail space.

The German
Retail Leasing Market
The German retail leasing market has shown a pretty consistent rate of
development over the past two and a half years. Between 2010 and 2012
a total of 7269 new retail leasing transactions were reported by publicly
available sources. International retailers have a growing presence: their
share of the leasing market is now 21 %, with domestic retailers accounting
for the other 79 %.
231
This constant development rate shows that retailers’ expansion strategies

As the common lease length for retail properties is ten years, “new” or

retailers have to move fast to secure the location, otherwise they risk losing

segment its retailers from the USA (such as Forever 21) or Turkey (such as
LC Waikiki) that have been prominent.
The most favoured city for a pilot store was, once again, Berlin. Germany’s
capital city is home to the country’s most trendy retail location, Hackescher
market, which is a very attractive target for international fashion labels. All
the cities featured in this report have their own characters and potential for
opening pilot stores. The only exceptions are the cities of Oberhausen and
Wertheim, where the shopping centre CentrO and the factory outlet centre
Wertheim Village are, respectively, the primary attractions.
Due to its tremendous variety of top retail destinations, we predict that
Germany will remain a key market for cross-border expansion in the
coming years.

the german market habits
Basis of measurement/Valuation approach
The basis of measurement is square metres. There is no system of zoning different parts of a building; an overall rate per square metre is adopted for
valuation purposes.
Market transparency
Detailed information on transactions is considered confidential and there is no public register of letting transactions. Retail reports covering prime rents
and market trends are available for the main cities. Information is also available from property advisory companies and agents.
Rent payment
Payable monthly in advance.
Rent escalation/Rent review
Rents often indexed to the Consumer Price Index. Rent escalations agreed in the lease contract are based on a stepped rent. Rents are reviewed only in
the case of renewal or as result of extraordinary negotiations.
Tenant‘s covenant
Bank Guarantee or Cash Deposit equivalent to three month‘s rent. Lease contract defines exact sum, subject to negotiations, depending on tenant’s
credit rating.
Service charges
Most service charges are passed on to tenants, whereas costs such as electricity and water, are settled directly with the respective supplier. Service
charges range from €3.50–4.50/sq m per month for high street units and €5.00–10.00/sq m per month for units in shopping centres. Service charges are
paid monthly in advance and reconciled annually.
Property taxes and other costs
Rents payable to a commercial landlord are subject to VAT which is fully recoverable. There are no other taxes payable upon the granting of a lease or
rental payments. Land tax is payable by the landlord to the local authority and includes charges for public services, which are passed on to tenants.
Most shopping centres claim an advertisement fee of € 3.00 – 4.00/sq m per month to cover the expenses of the respective advertising association.
Agent fees
Standard agent fees are 3.6 months’ rent (net). Only in difficult markets, a contribution of the landlord may apply. By concluding framework agreements
with agents, it is possible to negotiate lower fees.
Incentives
Incentives are hard to negotiate for market conditions are still developing well in Germany‘s top markets. Landlords are more willing to offer incentives to
tenants with strong brands, long-term contracts (>10 years) and excellent credit ratings, especially in second tier cities or secondary locations within the
major retail centres. Fitout contributions are common for anchor tenants in shopping centres.
Lease length and term
5-10 year lease terms are standard, even if there is no statutory clause regulating this issue. Break options may be hard to negotiate in top locations and
usually incur penalties. Expansion into second tier cities or secondary locations could allow for discussions about break options or even shorter lease
terms (3 years). The maximum length of fixed-term lease contracts is 30 years; after this time, statutory break options apply for the tenant.
Selling a lease
Selling a lease is not a regulated procedure and is subject to the negotiation of a respective lease contract agreement. It is generally possible to include a
right to sublease the whole of the leased premises in the lease contract, but this is uncommon. The landlord will normally negotiate directly with the new
tenant and claim compensation which, in addition to key money payable to the departing tenants, is payable by the incoming tenant.
Alterations to shop interior and exterior
In general, structural alterations have to be agreed with the landlord. Usually, units must be restored to their original state at lease expiry. Operators of
prime shopping centres claim to be consulted in questions of alterations to fitouts and advertising. Structural changes, changes of use and security
issues are also subject to local authority consent.
Repairing liability
The landlord is responsible for the repair and maintenance of roofs and structures (‘Dach und Fach’); the responsibility and/or cost of repairs and
maintenance to all other areas is normally passed onto the tenants directly or via service charges. Triple-net lease contracts are not common, but can be
concluded for out-of-town large scale retail units with single tenants.

Glossary of terms – Data Explanations and Definitions
Annual Indicative Rent
The typical annual rent paid by the tenant for a ground floor retail unit of 200 square metres or (2,000 square feet in markets which
use Imperial measurements) with a frontage of 8 metres, excluding any ‘key money’ (premium, or initial payment, to secure the
right to occupy the unit) or other leasing incentives.
Centrality Index
Local retail turnover divided by retail relevant purchasing power, expressed as an index compared to the national average.
Consumer Price Index
Index which measures the cost of a standardised basket of goods and services acquired by households, used to monitor
changes in prices over time (see Retail Price Inflation, below). Constructed to a standard definition across Europe as the
Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices, HICP.

Inhabitants 2030
Inhabitants of a city, forecast using specific demographic modelling.
Prime Rent
The prime retail rents quoted in this publication represent the typical “achievable” open market headline rent which an
international retail chain would be expected to pay for a ground floor retail unit of up to 100 sq m of the highest quality and
specification (box-shaped, 5m frontage) and in the best location in a given market. The quoted rents reflect the level at which
relevant transactions are being completed in the market at the time but need not be exactly identical to any of them,
particularly if deal flow is very limited or made up of unusual one-off deals. In these circumstances, the quoted figure will be
more hypothetical, based on expert opinions of market conditions; nevertheless, the same criteria on building size and
specification apply. The figures exclude any leasing incentives or “key money” (initial payment to secure the right to occupy the
unit).
Retail Relevant Purchasing Power Index
Disposable average income per capita (gross, including transfer payments), reduced by the proportion accounted for by other
spending categories, expressed as an index compared to the national average.
