AS Retail are delighted to have been appointed by Pinza to assist on their roll-out in the UK.

Pinza opened its first site in Dubai in 2015 where it introduced their unique home-grown ideas which is a modern foodie’s answer to a wholesome, delicious and healthy eating concept.  Quickly adding four more sites to their brand in the United Arab Emirates and two delivery hubs in London, they are now looking to expand further into dine-in venues.

We are seeking A3 units of between 1,500 – 2,500 sq ft preferably in close proximity to transport hubs and offices in prominent locations in London.  The City, Midtown and West End are of particular interest along with quality locations in Zones 2 and 3.

Following the successful opening of new branches in Eastbourne and Telford, AS Retail have been appointed to assist coffee experts Jamaica Blue in the search for further sites for 2020 and 2021 opening.

Jamaica Blue is a casual dining concept brought to us by Food Co and is been built on two simple beliefs: a belief in sourcing the very best coffee; and a belief in using only fresh, premium ingredients to deliver contemporary café dishes with a twist. The name, Jamaica Blue, is drawn from the majestic Blue Mountains of Jamaica, one of the best coffee producing regions in the world and home to the exclusive Wallenford Estate® Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee.

The brand now operates from seven locations in the UK as well as internationally including Australia, New Zealand, China and Singapore. Please see www.jamaicablue.co.uk for further information on the concept and menu.

We are seeking units of 1,250 – 2,500 sq ft in prominent locations in shopping malls, high streets, in-store concessions, hospitals and airports in strong and/or affluent markets in towns in the South and the Midlands. Please contact Andrew Shepherd or Ellie Oldershaw at AS Retail for a copy of the landlord pack and to discuss the requirements.

Andrew commented ‘We are delighted to be assisting Jamaica Blue with their expansion programme. The concept is superb; great coffee and fabulous classic dishes but with a twist. They will be a great addition to shopping centres and high streets across the country and we look forward to working with them to identify new sites’
