John Keyes, Head of the Manchester office comments: “We see the retail sector as an ongoing area of opportunity. DTZ’s commitment to growth in this sector allows us to continue to service our very strong client base at a local level, but with the strength of DTZ’s national and international reputation as leaders in the retail market to support this growth.”
