Perth Commercial Sector Ticking Along

61668d6a-e57c-4f1f-9445-792ae6c2f0e7

Western Australia’s first full-service supermarket to hit the market in more than 10 years has been snapped up by an east coast investor for $31.95 million.

The Coles supermarket and First Choice Liquor store was sold by Coles Group Property Developments, the property development arm of the retailer on a 5.3 per cent yield.

The Coles Riverton property, located about 10 kilometres’ south-east of Perth’s CBD, attracted 290 enquiries, according to its selling agents Savills.

Savills said the listing received 14 offers from Australian and offshore investors but an un-named interstate buyer ‘sealed the deal with a quick exchange.’

The news come just a day after The Urban Developer reported on the sale of a Victorian Coles supermarket in the suburb of Clayton on a record 2.57% yield. The Coles went to a local private investor for more than $17 million.

US retail giant moves in twos

In a vote of confidence in Perth’s economy, US retail heavyweight Costco has already announced the development of a second Perth-based store.

Costco’s managing director Patrick Noone said he hopes to have two Perth locations trading by the end of 2019.

News of the second store comes after last month’s announcement of the first $55 million project, with Perth airport and Costco joining forces to build the first Costco warehouse in the airport precinct.

Construction of the 14,000sq m building at the airport site is expected for early 2019.
