Five supermarkets across Australia for sale with aisles of opportunity
The humble supermarket may not look like a financial powerhouse, but it’s the pulse of a modern community – and a weekly staple offering fluorescent lights, familiar aisles and specials galore.
Retail asset classes, specifically supermarkets, involve long-term leases as the norm, often attracting strong ASX-listed national operators to well-located sites with high foot traffic, in turn offering security and long-term growth potential.
