The possibilities are without limit if you are an entrepreneur. Promenade Temecula is the place for you! Short term leasing or “Specialty” Leasing is a great way to test market a product with less of a time commitment, lower overhead costs & financial demands. If operating on an RMU (cart) there is instant visibility to the shopper because your business is situated in the open common area among strong national retailers. Finding product distribution or advertising in today’s crowded marketplace is difficult. Forest City, Promenade Temecula delivers an efficient way for you to get your product or businesses exposed in a trusted environment and grow your profitability.
The possibility of long term success is absolutely within reach. Even large chain retailers have blossomed from the specialty leasing programs that have been offered in our centers. “Halo Couture”, a family operated concept began and has operated on an RMU in Promenade Temecula for 2 years and now has expanded their business to several centers! They were guided how to merchandise their product by a professional merchandiser and specialty leasing consultation to expedite the opening of their retail concept. Halo Couture offers great service along with GENUINE interacting with the customer on a professional level, which has created a profitable and successful business within a challenging economy.
List of opportunities:Typically there is an array of Specialty Leasing opportunities available within a shopping center. Here are some examples:
Kiosk-the easiest definition of a kiosk is a retail unit of approximately 150-200 square feet. The distinct difference between this unit and an RMU (cart) is that you operate your business from inside of it. It is most often a stationary space located in the common area.. This can be leased short term or permanent.
RMU-or Retail Merchandising Unit most commonly referred to as a Cart. It is approximately 50 square feet of retail space. You operate your business around it. It is typically mobile. RMUs can be leased from a 30 day term and go from month to month to eliminate the stress of long term commitment.. It is the easiest way to establish your retail presence in a center. Ready in only a few days, it offers a sense of stability and permanence that gives your business visibility and locations that offer very high customer traffic. Leasing terms on RMUs (carts) are the most flexible of the leasing opportunities and allows you to focus on selling or advertising your product or concept. There are weekend RMU events that are occasionally available to reveal an evaluation of your concept or business.

Inline space-also known as store space. The square footage of such space can range in size from small to large. Since inline space is something that the owner of a shopping center wants to have leased on a permanent basis, the availability can be varied. Your Agreement term can run month to month or on a specified short term basis.

ADVERTISEMENT OR LEADS ON A RMU (CART)
Innovative and creative avenues to lease a RMU (cart) with no overhead. This is a significant marketing device to increase customer awareness and visibility.
