Federal Realty Investment Trust
Founded in 1962, we are one of the oldest US REITs. We focus on the ownership, operation and development of high-quality retail properties—from grocery-anchored shopping centers to large-scale mixed-use neighborhoods. Our properties are located in nine major markets characterized by their superior demographics, high barriers to entry, and significant demand. Our diversified portfolio is positioned to be the real estate of choice for the widest selection of tenants and uses. The flexible nature of our portfolio lends itself to continual evolution through remerchandising and reinvestment that positions our assets for the future. Our developments are backed by 25+ years of proven experience creating live, work, play destinations. With a proven history of delivering results and the longest record of annual dividend rate increases among US REITs, our business has been remarkably resilient even in the most adverse economic cycles and is well-positioned for long-term success.
Purpose
We create exceptional places because we have exceptional people. With a team of just over 300 employees, every individual’s contribution is vital to our success. Our workforce is like family, and we strive to make Federal feel like home.
We are dedicated to fostering an environment where our people feel supported, challenged, and empowered every day—both personally and professionally.
Open and frequent communication is at the heart of our culture. It begins with our CEO personally meeting each new employee, offering them a chance to hear about the company firsthand and providing the CEO with an opportunity to get to know them as individuals. This commitment to transparency continues with our quarterly company-wide meetings, where we share updates and give employees across different departments a platform to present the exciting work they’re doing. Keeping our team informed about the company’s direction ensures that our employees remain engaged and invested in our shared success.
