Experts in retail.

 

Since 1929 Casto has been an innovator in the retail marketplace. Our world-class portfolio includes more than 23 million square feet of retail space and reflects more than 80 years of experience in creating and managing strategically strong shopping and entertainment centers.

In 2001 Casto acquired 13 shopping centers from Duke-Weeks Realty Corporation, expanding our presence in the Indiana, Illinois and Cincinnati, Ohio arenas. The 1999 partnership with R.J. Solove & Associates added 22 shopping centers to the Casto portfolio and created a formidable force in the Columbus, Ohio retail market. In 1995 we established Casto Lifestyle Properties (formerly Casto Southeast) and committed significant resources to retail development in Florida with special emphasis on mixed-use lifestyle centers. In 2005 we entered the North Carolina market and have rapidly expanded that portfolio to more than 1.5 million square feet. The synergy generated by growing our portfolio is achieving exceptional results... strengthening commercial relationships and creating better shopping environments.

Convenient locations.

The key to Casto's success is our determination to create the greatest value for our tenants and the communities in which our centers are located. Since Don M. Casto, Sr. first introduced the concept of collective merchandising seven decades ago, we have achieved a thorough understanding of our markets and offer strategic, convenient locations with the best mix of dynamic anchor tenants and complementary retailers to stimulate increased sales throughout our shopping centers. Our centers are further strengthened by carefully planning peripheral properties to provide otherwise unsatisfied uses in the shopping centers. It is our commitment to maintaining the highest possible design, construction and property management standards that keeps retailers and customers returning time and time again.
