Get an in-depth look at the redevelopment of a flex industrial property that now boasts a diverse tenant base including a third party logistics company, a plumbing supply company, an art framing company, custom gift box company and a craft brewery. The project required substantial effort to get where it is today: Old landscaping and trees were replaced with drought-tolerant plants and drip irrigation, and parking lots and truck yards were repaired, slurry sealed and restriped. Building improvements included new window coverings, modernized entrances, polished concrete floors, LED light fixtures in offices, and more.

In 1976, the two-story 1.85-million-square-foot Randall Park Mall, located on 90 acres in North Randall, Ohio, was the largest indoor mall in the U.S. When ICP purchased the property decades later as part of a tax foreclosure, it marked the beginning of a very long redevelopment process. Now, the current site plan includes a multi-tenant industrial building, distribution center, bulk warehouse and hotel. This panel will discuss the myriad challenges and success with the transformative Randall Park Mall redevelopment project, and the impact on the community of flipping retail to industrial.

The number of ways customers purchase goods (i.e., at a retail location, on a tablet, social media, etc.) is matched by the myriad methods of delivering such goods to the customers. Most traditional and e-commerce retailers are coming to the conclusion that an omnichannel sales, distribution/fulfillment and returns model is needed, but this model is evolving quickly and looks very different for those with their roots in traditional retail or e-commerce. Hear from experts as they share the key characteristics of effective omnichannel distribution networks, the associated labor and transportation costs, and what the distribution network of the future looks like.
