Retail Development, Leasing and Management in Charlotte and the Southeast

Childress Klein develops, leases and manages shopping centers and mixed-use retail destinations across Charlotte and the Southeast. We bring more than 5.1 million square feet of retail development experience to every project and manage more than 1.8 million square feet of retail space today, including landmark Charlotte centers such as The Arboretum, Promenade on Providence, RiverGate Shopping Center and Waverly.

Our research-based approach starts with how people shop. We study each market and our clients' business strategies, then curate the right mix of grocery, restaurant, service and specialty tenants, along with the amenities and community events that drive traffic and sales.

As an owner, investor and developer with ready capital, we handle every stage in-house, from site selection and development through leasing and property management, and we continue to invest in retail destinations across the Southeast. National, regional and local retailers work with Childress Klein, including 39 Fortune 500 clients.
