Our take

There's been a growing trend for pop-up shops over the last few years. It's become easier for small brands to get recognised on Instagram and build a following. At the same time, larger brands want to reach their consumers in more innovative ways.

Appear Here has capitalised on this trend and were one of the first companies to offer super short term lets on commercial properties to help brands (now big and small) reach consumers in innovative ways.

Some people think this trend for short term lets is the future of the high street and will reinvigorate the shopping experience for the 21st century.
