The Cher Group Contractors builds out retail spaces for shop owners, franchise tenants and shopping-center landlords across Palm Beach County and Broward. If you have signed a lease, or you are about to, we turn the space you rented into a store that is ready to open: walls, ceilings, lighting, power, restrooms, finishes and the permits that go with them. We are a Florida-licensed general contractor (CBC1265622) and we carry all insurance required by the State of Florida. For a price on your space, use the quote form on this page. Call (305) 290-3323 for pricing.
Retail Build-Outs from Shell to Opening Day
Most retail spaces come to a tenant in one of two conditions. A shell space is bare: concrete floor, open ceiling, utilities stubbed in. A second-generation space was another business before you, and some of what is there may be usable. Either way, a retail build-out covers the same core work:
- Demolition of the old tenant’s finishes when needed
- Framing, drywall and interior partitions for sales floor, stockroom and office
- Electrical, lighting and power for registers, displays and signage
- Plumbing and restrooms that meet code
- HVAC changes for the new layout
- Ceilings, flooring, paint and storefront finishes
- Fitting rooms, counters and fixtures coordinated with your vendors
We coordinate with your landlord, your architect and our trades so you deal with one point of contact from the first walk-through to final inspection. See also our tenant improvements page.
Retail Build-Outs Across Palm Beach County and Broward
We take retail work across both counties, including:
- Fort Lauderdale and the rest of Broward. See our Fort Lauderdale page.
- Pompano Beach plazas and storefronts. See our Pompano Beach page.
- Boca Raton shopping centers and mixed-use buildings. See our Boca Raton page.
- West Palm Beach and the rest of Palm Beach County. See our West Palm Beach page.
Each city and the county have their own permit office and inspection steps. We handle the permit and inspection process with the jurisdiction that covers your space, so you know where things stand as the job moves.
Working With Shopping-Center Landlords
Shopping centers and mixed-use landlords usually have tenant criteria: approved drawings, insurance certificates naming the landlord, rules on deliveries, noise and storefront signage, and sign-off before you open. We work inside those rules. We submit what the landlord asks for, keep the property manager informed and schedule the work so the center and the neighboring tenants are not disrupted. Work is scheduled during regular working hours unless the landlord and the project call for something else.
Built by a Team That Opens Commercial Spaces
Our commercial work is in restaurants and retail. Our team built and later remodeled the Texas de Brazil on PGA Boulevard in Palm Beach Gardens, helped build the Texas de Brazil at Sawgrass Mills and remodeled Texas de Brazil in Hallandale. In Fort Lauderdale, we remodeled and built out BKK. Restaurant tenant spaces carry the same landlord rules, inspections and opening deadlines as retail units, plus kitchens, so the same team plans and runs your retail build-out. See all of our restaurant build-outs.
Retail and Restaurant Build-Outs Under One Roof
Many plazas mix shops and restaurants. If you are a landlord with both types of vacancies, or a tenant opening a café inside a retail concept, we handle both. Restaurant build-outs add kitchens, hoods, grease traps and health requirements; retail build-outs focus on the sales floor, lighting and storefront. Our design build option is there if you do not have drawings yet.

Yes. We take retail build-outs across Palm Beach County and Broward, including all four cities.
