Why Grocery-Anchored Centers Continue to Perform in Changing Retail
Transaction volume in grocery-anchored retail surged 42% in 2025. Vacancy in the format sits at 4.0% - 230 basis points tighter than non-anchored retail. Institutional capital is reengaging, new supply is near historic lows, and the grocers anchoring these centers are posting double-digit visit growth. The question for investors isn’t whether grocery-anchored centers are performing. It’s why - and how to find the right ones.
Join Todd Parker and Amanda Steinle from Denver-based integrated real estate investment firm, Realberry, for a look at what’s driving performance in grocery-anchored retail - and the key projects they’re developing in the mountain west region. Together, Todd and Amanda bring more than 35 years of combined experience across commercial development, mixed-use planning, entitlements, construction, and project execution, offering investors a practical perspective shaped by real-world deal evaluation and delivery.
