Braehead Shopping Centre has been sold to the Frasers Group as part of a landmark deal.
Previous owners SGS UK Retail are also responsible for Lakeside Shopping Centre, Victoria Centre in Nottingham and Harlequin Watford.
The Group was restructured and refinanced in 2024 and has overseen a comprehensive transformation programme that has strengthened Braehead’s market position, operational effectiveness and sales performance.
Claire Barber, CEO of SGS UK Retail, said: “The sale of Braehead was always part of our strategic plan and through active management, we have delivered substantial value enhancement and successfully stabilised the asset, attracting new brands and increasing its relevance and appeal to customers.
"We have created a strong platform from which Frasers Group can continue to drive growth, leveraging its retail expertise to further unlock Braehead’s potential as one of the leading retail destinations in Scotland.
“In light of strong leasing performance and the significant progress made in discussions with brands, we continue to see significant value creation opportunities in the Group’s remaining three assets."
