27 April 2022 – Global proptech company Mallcomm announces today it has expanded its European footprint with its first strategic partnerships in Greece and Belgium.

Mallcomm will deliver a bespoke digital platform that enables asset management teams to engage with 350 retail tenants in real-time in three languages and streamline day-to-day operations such as centre security.
In Greece, Mallcomm has agreed an exclusive partnership with Lamda Development to deliver a technology platform at Mediterranean Cosmos, with plans to roll out to a further 2 retail properties in future.

The platform will also allow real-time communication between asset management teams, tenants and other stakeholders to enhance day-to-day management and visitor experience.

“As the retail sector rebounds from the pandemic, landlords and tenants recognise the need to work more closely together, and not only are we seeing increased demand for our core digital communication product we are evolving our platform to support new use cases, such as the collection of sales and energy performance data. We are delighted to be working with AG Real Estate and Lamda to create a best-in-class digital layer at flagship retail and mixed-use assets.”
Jurgen De Gelas, Shopping Center Manager City2 – AG Real Estate, said:
“As a digital-minded shopping manager, we wanted a tool that would allow us to communicate in real time with our tenants. The Mallcomapp application is a digital tool that perfectly complements the immediate management of information, animations and events with the significant advantage of being paperless. In addition to the daily information about the life of a shopping centre, the application also allows us to manage unexpected events, also known as crisis communication, and to centralise it on a single platform with a more efficient result.”
