About The Company
History The story of Cafaro...the family and the organization...is an extraordinary one. It’s a tale punctuated by real estate development achievements that stretch from coast to coast. William M. Cafaro and his brother John started out developing properties for grocers. In 1949, they founded a company with a new goal: To know and serve the markets they selected with retailers people needed and wanted. As the industry evolved, so did the company. By the 1960's Cafaro was building regional malls. Currently our portfolio encompasses more than 50 projects totaling more than 30 million square feet of space Now, as the company has celebrated its 75th anniversary, a third generation of Cafaros is putting its own imprint on the business. Co-Presidents William A. Cafaro and Anthony Cafaro, Jr. bring their own unique talents, vision and techniques, all the while maintaining the philosophy to which they were born. They continue to redevelop and reposition the property portfolio with an eye toward expansion. Stability and integrity remain the watchwords for Cafaro’s professionals. They manage our core functions...management, leasing, marketing, security, construction and maintenance...in-house to ensure the highest possible quality for tenants and shoppers. Many of our professionals have been with us for decades, bringing a rare mix of skill and continuity. They’re part of the family too.

Why Cafaro:

For 75 years, we have been dedicated to bringing high-quality retail developments to communities across America. We understand that the needs and preferences of each market evolve, and we respond by creating vibrant centers that serve as destinations for shopping, dining, and entertainment.

This vision was born from the entrepreneurial spirit of our founders, brothers William M. Cafaro and John Cafaro. Their journey began by developing properties for grocery stores, and in 1949, they established the foundation for what would become a leading force in retail development across the nation.

Today, the Cafaro portfolio boasts over 50 properties, encompassing more than 30 million square feet of developed space across 10 states. The third generation of the Cafaro family now leads the company, with Co-Presidents William A. Cafaro and Anthony Cafaro, Jr., guiding this dynamic organization with their unique talents and vision. While embracing innovation, they remain deeply committed to the values of stability and integrity instilled by their father and grandfather.

Cafaro’s Mission:

The Cafaro family of companies shall continue our commitment of fiscally managed preservation and growth of our commercial real estate and investment portfolios. Based upon a strategic approach of continuous reinvestment and improvement of our real estate assets and disciplined non real estate asset management and investment, the organization shall maintain its autonomy as a privately controlled family owned business. This commitment recognizes that our people, as an extension of the Cafaro family, constitute our most important resource.

Accordingly, by promoting an environment that values fairness, respect, and recognition, the organization shall endeavor to stimulate amongst its people accountability, personal growth, and self-esteem. The hallmark of the organization shall continue to be characterized by an unparalleled sense of loyalty, pride, dedication, and strong work ethic.

In the tradition of our founders, we shall maintain our present business relationships with honesty, openness, integrity, and credibility. These values shall be the foundation of future relationships as we plan for a future of continued prosperity.
