The brief

Ashford Borough Council (the Council) is undertaking a preliminary market engagement exercise with the intention of appointing a development partner for the Park Mall Redevelopment in Ashford town centre.

This project forms a key element of the Council’s broader strategy to enhance the town centre’s appeal and act as a catalyst for regeneration, transforming the area into a vibrant and sought-after destination.

At this preliminary market engagement stage, the Council is seeking to engage with prospective developers to gather insights and gauge the market’s interest in the Redevelopment.

It is anticipated that the formal procurement process for this project will commence in Summer 2026, with an expected contract award in Early 2027 and the delivery of the completed scheme within 3 years.
