GENECON's report on High Street Performance was launched on 13th December 2011 by the Department for Business, Innovation & Skills to coincide with the launch of the Mary Portas high streets review.  GENECON has been working closely with the Portas team to provide an assessment of the available evidence on high street performance, the causes of decline and the prognosis for the future.  GENECON's report, which is referenced throughout the Portas Review, has been welcomed by BIS and published on its website.  Click here to read our report.
