For years, much of Memphis’ retail growth has been concentrated in the suburbs. More recently, however, redevelopment activity in East Memphis, Midtown and Downtown has created a new source of investment and retail demand.  While suburban growth remains steady, some of the market’s most notable projects are occurring in established areas where older properties are being redeveloped and repositioned for new uses. As a result, some of the market’s most significant activity is occurring within existing commercial corridors rather than through large-scale retail expansion. Memphis remains a healthy retail market, although growth has become more measured than it was a few years ago. Retail vacancy is forecast to reach 5 percent in 2026, while average asking rents are projected to climb to $14.20 per square foot.  New supply also remains relatively limited.
