GOAD - Information for Retail Property Professionals

A GOAD plan contains detailed information and mapping capabilities for retail centres.

Over the past 12 months Experian have surveyed 63 retail centres across Ireland (North and South) which are now available in digital format. These sites are regularly resurveyed and further sites are also being surveyed all the time.

A GOAD plan provides information on occupiers, their activity, address details, floorspace and much more. The maps and data are stored in digital format and can be viewed, edited and analysed on your desktop PC or simply viewed in paper format.

GOAD Plans have been a prerequisite for decision makers in the retail, property and related industries for over 30 years. They allow you to visually assess the quality of prospective pitches by showing the location and physical surroundings of all premises, occupied and vacant, within a centre.
