FOUNDED IN 1950

Taubman was founded in 1950 by real estate pioneer A. Alfred Taubman. Trained as an architect, Alfred used design to break down barriers between consumers and merchandise, what he termed “threshold resistance.” Alfred believed that shopping should be an experience, not merely a transaction. His innovation and forward-looking retail philosophy remain an integral part of the company’s DNA and have become the standard for many shopping centers around the world.

PROPERTIES

Taubman owns, manages and/or leases 24 shopping centers in top markets across the United States and Asia. Taubman’s portfolio is the most productive in the shopping center industry.
