Driven to success, fueled by passion.

We’re a boutique real estate advisory firm and a team of dealmakers and multi-lingual brand visionaries working at the intersection of real estate, international commerce, and the luxury marketplace. We draw on our wide-range of experience to position elite retail flagships, secure large-scale purchase and lease transactions, deploy national level brand roll-outs, and craft unparalleled strategy.

Our global reach is backed by local knowledge, as we’ve grown an extensive network with leading retailers, landlords, private equity firms and owners over the course of our 35 years’ combined experience. Our work across major global cities - including New York, Milan, Miami, London, and Los Angeles - informs our international sensibility, and our close connections throughout domestic and international markets provide insider savvy that keeps us at the leading edge.

We’ve built our expertise from our experience across the fields of fine art, luxury fashion and beauty, consulting, e-commerce, and domestic and international retail. The breadth of our facility – from asset representation and securing off-market transactions to brand roll-outs, consumer market research and site selection - allows us to provide tailored-to-fit services for owners and retail brands alike. We strike deals where others can’t, securing better terms than anyone else, and though our reach is extensive, our focus is singular: our clients’ continued success.
 
The relationships we build are at the center of everything we do, and we’re proud of the trusted partnerships we’ve built with our clients, including leading private equity firms, Louis Vuitton, Dior, Gucci, Fendi, Erdem, Fresh, Everlane, Calzedonia, General Pants Co., Intimissimi, Hackett, Solange Azagury-Partridge, IMG, and the Council of Fashion Designers of America.

Robin Zendell & Associates is a proud sponsor of the CFDA, and our founder, Robin Zendell, serves as an inaugural Advisory Board member for the CFDA and Cadillac's Retail Lab. Robin’s passion and commitment to the arts extends to her involvement with the Anderson Ranch Arts Center in Aspen, Colorado, where she currently sits on the Board of Trustees.
