Famularo Will Spearhead Meridian’s New Retail Leasing Platform in NYC

Meridian Capital Group is rolling out a retail leasing division, Meridian Retail Leasing, with James Famularo (pictured) leading the new division’s New York City platform. It will represent both landlords and tenants, and plans call for scaling up via recruitment.

“Retail leasing will substantially expand the services we offer clients,” said Ralph Herzka, Meridian’s founder and CEO. “Our mission here is clear: To build a best-in-class retail leasing team and infrastructure that will combine the expertise of proven leasing professionals led by James, with the vision and client service levels that have driven Meridian’s success.”

Most recently with Eastern Consolidated, which announced earlier this month that it would close its doors, Famularo has leased more than one million square feet of retail space in New York over a career spanning more than two decades. He specializes in leasing fashion, food and fitness spaces.
