To our partners in the real estate community:

When you look at Gap Inc., you see a company that has positioned itself for the future. We began our efforts—and tough decisions—even before the economic challenges of the past two years. That head start has put us ahead of so many of our competitors and other retailers.

We’re ready to grow—with a strong balance sheet, no debt, and new prototypes.

Critical to our future is building on the strength of our North American brands. Our renewed customer focus will ensure that we stay relevant and innovative, so that each of our brands increases its market share.

At the same time, we’re building on our global recognition. We’re in the middle of a series of thoughtful investments that will bring our brands to new customers around the world, where our reputation—for fashion, quality and innovation—precedes us.

We appreciate and value the role you play in our continued growth.

Gap Inc.’s goal is simple: To be the top tenant in the retail industry, sought after by landlords for being best in class for process as well as performance.

Our brands are iconic and globally recognized. We’ve laid the foundation for growth and renewed our focus on customers in every market we serve. In addition, we have refined the way we do business, streamlining our decision-making, so that we’re more responsive and efficient. In short, an easier place for landlords to do business.

It’s a better time than ever for our portfolio of brands, and we’re proud to have re-established ourselves as a tenant of choice for every landlord.

We look forward to our continued partnership with you.
