What Hendon Properties does

Hendon Properties is a privately held, full-service retail real estate development, brokerage, and management organization headquartered at 3445 Peachtree Road NE in Atlanta, Georgia. Founded in 1985 and operating with 11–50 employees, the company focuses on community and regional shopping centers, regional malls, and credit-tenant build-to-suit developments. Its stated project scope runs from 10,000 sq ft single-tenant build-to-suits to malls exceeding 1.1 million sq ft, with active engagement in the 30,000–300,000 sq ft band for major national retail tenants. Source materials explicitly name anchor relationships with Target, Walmart, Home Depot, Lowe's, Kohl's, Best Buy, Dillard's, Macy's, JCPenney, Sears, Bed Bath & Beyond, Belk, Marshalls, Dick's Sporting Goods, Sports Authority, L.A. Fitness, Victoria's Secret, Sam's Wholesale Club, Starbucks, Chick-fil-A, Moe's Southwest Grill, and Panera Bread, though several of these (Bed Bath & Beyond, Sports Authority, Sears) have undergone major retail restructurings since those relationships were publicized.

Hendon generates revenue through three professional-services streams: development services (site selection, due diligence, engineering, architecture, construction, leasing), brokerage for tenants and investors, and ongoing property management. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting national retail tenants, with CEO Charlie Hendon personally involved in external positioning—most recently presenting on U.S. retail real estate at the December 2025 Alternative Investments Forum in Tel Aviv. The company also operates within a family of affiliated consumer-facing brands—Hendon Retail Services as a sister company, plus Hendon Rocks!, Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q, Madison Records, Umi Sushi, and Smith's Olde Bar—several of which appear to be either in-retail tenants or operational extensions of the Hendon umbrella.

There is no evidence in the supplied data of funded external capital, acquisitions, AI or proprietary technology investments, API/SDK offerings, regulatory milestones, or international operating entities. Operating geography is stated as the U.S. Southeast. The company maintains a WordPress-based marketing site and a Property Capsule portfolio interface for property listings.
