Makris Group history

[edit]

I am a paid contributor working on behalf of Makris Group and have disclosed my employer, client and affiliation on my user page. Due to this conflict of interest, I am not making the proposed change directly. I am requesting that an uninvolved editor review the wording and sources below.

The wording provides a brief company history supported by acquisition reporting without reproducing a detailed corporate chronology.

Proposed wording: Makris Group was established in 1982 following Con Makris’s acquisition of Newton Village Shopping Centre in Adelaide. The company subsequently expanded through acquisitions of shopping centres and commercial property.

In 2013, the group acquired Marina Mirage at Main Beach, Queensland. It acquired the Oracle retail and commercial precinct at Broadbeach in 2014.
