In today’s competitive retail and hospitality landscape, the ability to capture and grow your visitor database is directly linked to where and how you deploy your new property development or current physical presence.
Each month, Aislelabs curates insights on new and upcoming developments across mixed-use properties, coffee-first locations, and hotels – helping marketers, operators, and IT leaders identify where foot traffic is rising and where location-based engagement opportunities are emerging.
Here’s what we’re seeing in this month’s update – and how it can help inform your growth strategy.
This Month’s Trends
Mixed-Use Projects Continue to Lead in Future Pipeline
A growing share of new projects entering the pipeline remain large-scale, mixed-use destinations — blending retail, residential, hospitality, and cultural spaces.
- Uptown Riyadh — a luxury-led district in Saudi Arabia
- One Scottsdale — Arizona, USA — hospitality + shopping + office
- Parramore Entertainment District — Orlando, FL — entertainment anchor strategy
Why it matters: As we explored in this recent blog, mixed-use environments present ideal conditions for footfall-based marketing and WiFi-powered CRM growth. These spaces drive high dwell times, multiple visit patterns, and cross-category engagement – creating significant opportunities to turn WiFi from a cost center into a profit-driving marketing engine.
Coffee-First Strategies Are Expanding Across Markets
Coffee chains continue to drive daily, repeat foot traffic in both standalone and anchor roles – a key lever for activating early engagement:
- 7 Brew Coffee — adding 70+ new U.S. locations
- Parlor Doughnuts — new sites in Alabama, Indiana, and Texas
- Bearology — continued expansion across West Coast markets
Why it matters: For properties looking to increase footfall traffic and seed early visitor database growth, coffee-first tenants are proving to be effective anchors – often driving consistent WiFi onboarding even before a full retail or hospitality program is complete.
Hotel Pipeline Remains Active Across Middle East and North America
Hospitality operators are actively building for premium, experience-driven stays – with many new developments designed to deliver seamless digital engagement throughout the guest journey:
- Multiple Saudi Arabia hotel developments (across Riyadh, Jeddah, AlUla) tied to giga projects and tourism growth
- Hyatt Studios rollout across U.S. regional markets
- High-end urban projects across Miami, Los Angeles, and Dallas
These new hotel environments offer prime opportunities to transform guest WiFi into a marketing and analytics asset – enabling stronger guest personalization, driving loyalty program participation, and expanding CRM database growth through seamless, privacy-first engagement.
