Scentre Group saw its net operating income jump 10% compared to the same time last year.
👉 Background: Scentre Group was founded in 2014 as the smaller spin off the Westfield Group. Scentre Group owns Westfield's Australian and New Zealand's 42 shopping centres.
👉 What happened: Despite the supposed slowdown in consumer spending, Scentre Group saw its net operating income jump 10% compared to the same time last year.
👉 What else: On top of this, it managed to increase customer visits by nearly 10% to over 314 million. And, they reckon it's because of collabs within the shopping centres with organisations like Disney and Netball Australia.
