What's the deal?

Europe’s leading meeting place for retail and property

Completely Retail Marketplace is a series of events that take place across multiple countries, where retail and leisure brands meet and network with a diverse range of property agents, landlords, shopping centre owners, franchise operators and organisations to discuss the market and opportunities for space.

The format of the show is stripped-back for optimum effectiveness. All the exhibition stands are the same size to enable a level playing field. Exhibitors and visitors meet, network, exchange market insight and requirements, set up deals, then leave in a better, more-connected position than before they went in, simple.

All delegates working directly for a brand can attend for free and can benefit from a monetary contribution towards flights if arriving from overseas*.

How did it all begin?

Transforming Retail: The Completely Retail Marketplace Revolution

Born from a visionary response to the challenges facing the UK’s retail sector in 2012, the Completely Retail Marketplace format has evolved into a powerhouse catalyst for industry rejuvenation and growth.

Our inaugural event in London set the stage for a dynamic convergence of retailers and property professionals, igniting a wave of innovation in retail space acquisition—from flagship stores to pop-ups, kiosks, and beyond.

Over the years, the Marketplace format has expanded its reach, empowering connections across various international markets, including Ireland, the Netherlands, Scandinavia, Iberia, and Eastern Europe.§§§§§

Today, Completely Retail Marketplace stands as London’s premier retail deal-making event, held bi-annually. Our dedicated team of event management, marketing, sales, and international specialists delivers a bespoke, expert service, ensuring each attendee not only benefits from the show but also forges meaningful connections with the right people.

Join us and be a part of the future of retail.

Don't just take our word for it

“We had another excellent day at CRMP UK in October 2019, an event which has become an integral part of our networking strategy every year. As well as planned meetings, we get a lot from the ad hoc chats on the floor as we circulate the hall during the course of the day. We are delighted to be a joint sponsor of the event and look forward to continuing our association with CRMP for many years to come.”

“CRMP is a key event for the retail property industry, enabling our team to engage directly with landlords, developers and agents to drive deals forward.”

Costa Coffee, attended CRMP UK, LONDON

“We found CRMP the ideal place to introduce our brand to a new market. We made many new contacts and were able to promote the brand in a relaxed format to a lot of people, all in a short space of time.”

“Completely Retail Marketplace continues to excel in providing a ‘must do’ event for anyone active in the retail and leisure sectors. The format is simple but so well organised, that it is highly effective and quite clearly the result of a team effort.”

Douglas Stevens & Co, attended CRMP UK, LONDON

“Completely Retail Marketplace is one of the industry events that we make sure we attend every year. There is a lot of opportunity in the fast-moving retail property industry, and these events offer an ideal setting to meet and network with the right agents, developers and land owners.”

Village Hotel Club, attended CRMP UK, LONDON

"Going to CRMP is a great opportunity to catch up with contacts and to meet those whom you know only by name in one full day."

Decathlon, attended CRMP UK, LONDON

“CRMP was an ideal event to network with the retail and shopping centre industry. I had the opportunity to promote our brand, Giordano, on the Soapbox stage and was very impressed with the turnout. The event was well organised and offered a platform for me to connect, learn, share and promote our brand to the Scandinavian market.”

Giordano, attended CRMP NORDICS, STOCKHOLM
