With a view to continuously improve the quality of its assets, introducing innovative and unique experiences that attract tenants and customers to its spaces, L2D strives to create sustainable value for all its stakeholders.

WHAT DIFFERENTIATES US

Focused investment strategy

Property is a long-term asset class. We pursue sustainable value delivered over the short and medium term that aligns to our long-term strategy. We leverage our unique competencies by investing in large precincts in and close to high-density areas and economic nodes in South Africa. As a retail-centred REIT, we invest in other property categories within retail-focused precincts to facilitate the creation of multipurpose destinations and unique communities that serve evolving consumer needs.

Quality iconic property portfolio

The L2D portfolio comprises iconic South African, predominantly retail-focused assets. We also own complementary office and hospitality properties within our precincts, which are anchored by blue-chip tenants. Additional assets in our portfolio, including mixed-use commercial and industrial developments and standalone offices, will be disposed of when the right circumstances prevail.

Strong balance sheet and financial strength

Our consistently applied prudent capital management strategy continues to protect value and create a platform to deliver sustainable operations and future growth over the medium term.

Future focused insight

Evolving consumer demands together with advances in technology are transforming the retail landscape at an unmatched pace. We proactively adapt to this retail evolution & the changing role of the store, consistently challenging ourselves to meet current and future needs, to create seamless customer journeys and experiences. The quality of our portfolio and our future-focused strategy support our capability to take advantage of this developing market trend.

PURPOSE AND VALUES-DRIVEN

Our purpose and values drive our business activities, including how we approach risks and opportunities and how we engage with stakeholders.

DIVERSITY, EQUITY AND INCLUSION

We prioritise delivering transformation, diversity, equity and inclusion. We are a proud B-BBEE Level 1 contributor and our Chief Executive’s “One woman at a time” challenge prioritises gender equity, which affirms our position as a transformed, diverse and inclusive leader in the property industry in South Africa.

Liberty Two Degrees is a precinct focused retail centred portfolio, with an iconic portfolio of South African assets that are dominant in their economic nodes.

Our operating environment, much like the world we live in, is changing at a rapid pace. The evolving retail environment and needs of physical property users, have only served to accelerate the rate of change. We continue to stay relevant and competitive by future proofing our assets in a manner that speaks to the changing needs of our tenants and positions the business for sustainable operations and future growth.
