Portrait of William McCarren

Founder

William McCarren

William founded McCarren Property Partners to invest in and develop quality property in the Western Cape with a long-term, owner-operator mindset.

He is also co-founder and President of FARO, a South African fashion retailer that has opened 20 stores in two years. Leading that rollout has meant negotiating and closing leases with the country's largest listed landlords, including Growthpoint, Redefine and Resilient, and building a working understanding of how institutional property owners assess sites, tenants and returns. He brings that landlord-side perspective directly to McCarren's acquisitions and developments.
