Notes for editors

Intu is the leading owner and manager of prime regional shopping centres in the UK.

A FTSE 100 company, Intu owns and operates many of the UK's biggest and most popular retail and leisure destinations, including nine of the top 20, incorporating super-regional centres such as intu Trafford Centre, intu Lakeside and intu Metrocentre, together with a number of city centre locations from Watford to Newcastle.

With over 23 million sq. ft. of space hosting top UK and international retailers from Apple to Zara, Intu centres attract some 400 million customer visits from over half of the UK's population every year.

Intu has a UK investment pipeline of GBP1.5 billion over the next ten years to add 2.6 million sq. ft. of new retail and leisure space, of which 1.7 million sq. ft. is already consented. Major projects due to be underway soon include the extension and refurbishment at intu Watford and the leisure expansion at intu Lakeside.

Intu also has a growing presence in the Spanish market, owning two of Spain's top 10 centres: intu Asturias in Oviedo, and Puerto Venecia in Zaragoza, a development site in Málaga and development options on a further three sites in Valencia, Palma and Vigo.

Intu creates a compelling experience for its customers, both on and offline, delivering on its brand promise to provide the most digitally connected shopping centres, world-class service and events with a difference. National initiatives include the annual 'Everyone's Invited' event which in 2014 increased footfall that weekend by an average of 13%. Our objective is for customers to come more often and stay for longer, in turn helping intu's retailers to flourish.

With some 115,000 people employed at Intu's centres in the UK, representing some 4% of the UK's total retail workforce, Intu is fully committed to supporting its local communities and the wider environment and is proud to have received widespread recognition for its Corporate Responsibility achievements, including the coveted BitC CommunityMark.
