Vote for the shops, food and experiences you want to see open, or pitch your own idea. Community demand feeds real decisions about real spaces. Cast your vote.
Find affordable retail units and pop-up shop space without needing to know anything about commercial property. Okupi translates rents, business rates and incentives into plain numbers (monthly costs, break-even turnover and what you'd actually pay) so you can decide with confidence.
Built for market traders, online sellers and first-time founders who want to open a shop and start a business on the high street. Validate demand with the local community, get an AI-generated launch plan, and only then get matched to the right space.
Okupi gives landlords and centre operators a managed pipeline of ready-to-trade tenants: demand data, tenant matching and marketing, not just listings. See how it works.
