Retail & Hospitality
At ACM, we create systems ensuring access to fresh food, wellness, and meaningful human connection.
Retail & Hospitality
Why We Invest Here
Too often, communities are forced to choose between affordability and quality — cheap food that isn’t healthy, wellness that’s priced out of reach. We believe people deserve better.
- In Retail, our focus is on affordability and accessibility — bringing organic, farm-fresh, local produce directly into communities. Markets that put farmers and families first, cutting out inefficiencies that raise costs.
- In Hospitality, we design spaces that heal — environments of calm, wellness, and humanity. From spas and wellness hubs to community cafés, we build places where people feel relaxed, cared for, and fulfilled.
