Gordons granted exclusivity by Iceland Foods to advise on all property matters

Gordons has been granted exclusivity by Iceland Foods to advise on all the British food retailer’s property matters.

Founded in 1970 and with its head office in Deeside, Flintshire, Iceland has been a Gordons client since 2015. The retailer has more than 1,000 stores throughout the UK.

Gordons previously predominantly advised on Iceland’s store acquisitions but now has the overall property mandate to act on Iceland’s behalf.

Iceland Foods group chief executive, Tarsem Dhaliwal, said: “We rate Gordons highly. They understand our business and how we need to operate to enable continued success.

“Appointing them on an exclusive basis for our property work is a natural evolution of our relationship. It is also testimony to the commercial outlook of the firm which is most evident in my discussions with Gordons senior partner, Paul Ayre.”

Commenting on the announcement, Paul Ayre said: “We’re delighted with this appointment. Relationships and results are the foundations for successful client partnerships at Gordons and this has been the case from the outset with Tarsem and Iceland.”
