KPG - Kiwi Property delivers record-breaking sales in 2022

Tuesday 24th January 2023

Kiwi Property today advised that its mixed-use shopping centres recorded just under $1.7b in total sales in 2022 [Note 1], setting a record for the company. The sales performance is almost 26% higher than 2019, the last year of trading unaffected by COVID-19.

2022 sales were also up significantly compared to 2021, including an increase of 5% in December versus the same time last year, a notable contrast to the overall decline in retail card spending in New Zealand during the month.

Linda Trainer, GM Asset Management at Kiwi Property said “There were around 25 million customer visits to Sylvia Park, LynnMall and Te Awa at The Base in 2022, with customers spending more than $200 million at our centres in December alone. This strong result further supports our strategy of investing in, and intensifying, our mixed-used assets, which include some of New Zealand’s best shopping destinations.

“Despite the challenging economic climate, Kiwi Property’s flagship centres such as Sylvia Park, with its diverse mix of first-to-New Zealand stores and favourite local retailers, coupled with a growing number of office and medical tenants, will help the business remain resilient through a potential future downturn, and position it for growth in the period that follows.”
