The right fit….

The right fit is everything – this is true in fashion, and also construction. Garrard builds better retail projects because we pay attention to the details. Safety is our number one priority, for our employees and the public. Many of our retail projects involve demolition, re-imaging, and adaptive reuse of existing buildings. Our team understands that these types of projects, whether in a mall or a strip center, have the potential to impact other tenants as well as patrons. We minimize disturbances to surrounding areas as much as possible for shopping guests and minimal disruptions to neighboring retailers. Our team also knows that a seamless process often leads to earlier project turnover, which equates to additional rent dollars that can be earned by our clients. We look for potential gaps in the project scope or omissions in the drawings and identify them early. We also closely monitor schedule demands and critical path elements to make sure everything stays on track and runs smoothly from start to finish.

A fresh approach….

The fact of the matter is, no one enjoys day old bread. Garrard keeps its approach to every project fresh by continuously improving our methods to better serve our clients. Our experienced project team has completed remodels, build-outs, and expansion projects for national grocery clients. We are also well-practiced in performing work while locations remain open to the public, and have a proven track-record of doing so with minimal disruption to patrons and daily operations. We also understand the complexities of grocery construction and equipment installation, like refrigeration and cooling systems, custom lighting and flooring, and automated systems. When desired, we also offer sustainable building materials and practices for clients wishing to achieve LEED certification due to corporate store building standards or as a personal preference to minimize the overall impact to the environment. Our team will take the lead in communication and coordination, so that your project doesn’t reach its expiration date.
