Our retail centres have been spreading kindness across the globe this festive season, connecting our customers with their loved ones far and wide this Christmas. In a new initiative designed to give back to our local communities, our retail centres across the country have been busy creating Merry Mailboxes, inviting customers to write a complimentary ‘My Kind of Christmas’ postcard before having it sent on their behalf. So far, we’re on track to send over 13,000 postcards - many reaching overseas mailboxes - proving an old-fashioned note never goes out of style! Through our Gifts of Kindness campaign, we’re also aiming to donate over 10,000 gifts and non-perishable food items to support those in need this Christmas. As our centres head into the busiest week of trade for the year, our Head of Portfolio (Retail) Sam Curry reflected on the important role ISPT shopping centres play in the local community. “During December, our centres welcome over 11 million visits across the country, as customers flock in-store for gift shopping and all their Christmas menu needs. These community initiatives are just some of the ways we’re working to give back to our customers and local communities this Christmas.” #retail #customerexperience #community #property #givingback #socialimpact Michelle Rowse Gabriella Bowman Kylie Gordon
