“If you are looking for 25 years of knowledge, wisdom and learning about retailing, Mainstreets and shopping strips in a ‘One Stop Shop’ then here it is. DAVID is one of the few people who has worked for private businesses, big shopping centres, local government, small business and as a consultant. He has seen it all. Here he clearly and succinctly explains all the key elements to a successful place. If you are a Local Government, a Business Association, a motivated Mainstreet trader, a consultant or a student in Place Management, Economic Development or Retailing, then I recommend you read this book.”
