“2018’s outlook is positive as new, national brand retailers have opened in Hawaii, demonstrating confidence in our market and economy. Increased tourism expenditures will propel Hawaii’s retail market to finish the year strong.” Erin Mitsuyoshi (S), Associate

After gaining nearly 1.3 million square feet of net absorption during the past fifteen quarters, Oahu’s retail market’s momentum slowed. The third quarter of 2018 posted a loss of 9,334 square feet of occupancy as vacancy rates remained relatively static at 6.08%. Despite the slight third quarter loss in occupancy, year-to-date net absorption remained a robust 213,585 square feet.

Flourishing during the year, regional malls, power centers, and resort retail centers are responsible for most of the occupancy gains. As mentioned in previous reports, newly-built space located at Ala Moana Center, Ka Makana Ali’i, and International Market Place has monopolized the retail headlines with numerous new leases. This year’s opening of Uniqlo at Ala Moana Center, Whole Foods within Ward Center’s complex coupled with the delivery of Kamehameha Schools’ new retail center at 4618 Kilauea Avenue in Kahala, helped to offset losses incurred when restaurants Baku and Yauatcha closed at International Market Place.

Colliers anticipates that the retail market will strengthen in the near term when several new centers are delivered to the market (i.e. Lau Hala Shops in Kailua and Kealanani Plaza in Kapolei). Oahu will also benefit from several new retail concepts and the expansion of national retailers to Hawaii that are planning new store openings within the next few quarters (Guitar Center, Ulta Beauty, HomeGoods, and Buffalo Wild Wings).

Inflationary Fears Begin to EmergeTourism continues to boom, fueling Hawaii’s economic engine. Oahu’s visitor arrival counts established another record high for year-to-date July 2018 with 3.48 million tourists visiting Oahu. This is a 5.5% gain over year-to-date July 2017. The continued increase in visitors supplies a healthy demand for Oahu’s hotel rooms and has helped to maintain hotel room occupancy rates in the low-to-high 80% range for the past six years. Additionally, the average daily room rate has risen since July 2009 from $149.57 to a current $260.18, a robust 73.9% increase over the past ten years.

As visitor arrival counts increased, tourism expenditures made a corresponding spike. For the first seven months of 2018, visitor spending surpassed $4.0 billion for the first time ever, registering a strong 10.55% boost over July 2017 year-to-date levels. While a portion of this spending is directly related to gains experienced in hotel room rates and transportation costs, Colliers’ resort retail specialists concluded there has been increased spending on food and beverage, recreation, and entertainment.

Oahu posted a July 2018 unemployment rate of 2.0%, well below the national unemployment rate of 3.9%. Over the past year, the number of non-agricultural wage and salary positions increased by 1,300 while the number of workers listed as unemployed declined by 1,600. Of the 1,300 new jobs filled during the past year for Oahu, 500 of those positions were for the retail sector. The lion’s share of these retail jobs were fueled by rapid growth of the food services and drinking places job category.

At a 2.0% unemployment rate, Oahu is considered at full employment. The shortage of available manpower has already impacted numerous businesses’ ability to expand. Entry level jobs are abundant and competitors are even pilfering each other’s skilled technical/managerial personnel. In order to entice prospective employees, hiring firms have begun to increase wages. Wage inflation is typically one of the first signs that the pace of economic growth will begin to slow.

Oahu Single Family Home Unit SalesOahu Single Family Home Median Price

Source: DBEDT, HBR

As inflationary fears increase and become realized, the Federal Reserve increases its efforts to curb upward price pressures by boosting interest rates. Higher borrowing costs, typically slows business investment, real estate acquisition and development activities.

The pricing for single family median homes hit a July year-to-date high of $789,500. This 5.3% increase in pricing also corresponded to a 1.6% decline in the total number of residential transactions to 2,090. Residential home sales and median prices affect the retail marketplace as they correlate to consumer confidence levels. It is typical that a boost in consumer confidence will lead to an increase in retail spending. Moreover, the purchase of a new home also boosts spending on household items such as appliances, furniture and gardening supplies.

Rental Rate Growth Stalls During Third QuarterAfter a healthy 4% increase in rents for the first six months of the year, the third quarter average retail asking base rent remained static at $4.16 per square foot per month (psf/mo). The greatest drops in rents occurred in Waikiki which fell by roughly 1.0%, but was offset by a 1.0% gain in East Oahu.

New Retail Developments to Boost Occupancy GainsBarring any black swan event, Colliers projects that the Oahu retail marketplace will remain positive despite the near term likelihood of interest rate hikes from the Federal Reserve. The short term outlook for Oahu’s economy is that it appears stable with nominal 1.0% to 2.0% gross state product growth. Colliers forecasts that an additional 100,000 square feet of new retail occupancy, bolstered by the delivery of several new developments, will likely result in vacancy rates falling below 6.0% by the end of the first quarter of 2019. For the longer term, Colliers anticipates that a rising interest rate environment coupled with shortages of available manpower will inhibit future retail development and store expansion plans.
