Highstreet has experienced significant
business activities in recent times. There have been reports of Highstreet's acquisition of numerous ventures such as Missouriβs
Siebert Agency, Georgia-based
Winder Insurance Center, upstate New York based H.G. Ellis Agency, Texas-based Collum Insurance Group, as well as Florida-based Flagler Insurance. The insurances' acquisitions highlight Highstreet's mission to expand its
central region presence and enhance its employee benefits expertise.
Highstreet is also delving into real estate development reportedly transforming a Buckeye Church Property into
510 apartment units, a project worth noting. However, the retail sector, particularly High Street stores, seems to be experiencing a downturn with the reported disappearance of fashion chain Vanilia and closure of an art gallery in Brighton. Reports suggest WHSmith is considering selling off High Street stores to focus on more lucrative travel businesses.
Highstreet continues to innovate despite seeming high street gloom, with a notable increase in retail start-up loans.
Highstreet Equity Partners has even reportedly invested in Sober Sidekick. Despite a declining footfall on the UK high street, UK shoppers are reportedly spending more on the high street and online compared to last Christmas.
