CBRE Investment Management (CBRE IM) has announced that it has signed supermarket chain, Aldi in Fulham Broadway Retail Centre. This comes after the destination has undergone a transformative year following investment by CBRE IM and a range of new additions to the centre line-up.

The supermarket joins the recently opened flexible workspace, Fulham Works by Spacemade, the revamped David Llyod club. As well as other retailers including Accessorize, Nando’s, Vue, Pret, Starbucks and Wagamama, creating an enhanced retail, leisure and office hub within the destination that is relevant to the community and visitors alike.
