Greensboro, N.C. — Tanger®, a leading owner and operator of outlet and other open-air retail shopping destinations, has released its 2025 Impact Report for the annual period ending December 31, 2025, marking a decade of reporting on the company’s sustainability and corporate responsibility initiatives. Additionally, the Institute for Market Transformation has named Tanger a 2026 Green Lease Leader at the Silver level.
Launched in 2014, Green Lease Leaders recognizes landlords, tenants and teams who modernize their leases to spur collaborative action on energy and water efficiency, shared cost-savings, air quality improvement and sustainability in buildings. Tanger received this recognition for its work to align with retailer partners around shared goals for energy efficiency, water conservation, utility data tracking and sharing and broader environmental responsibility. This achievement marks the completion of a goal outlined in Tanger’s Impact Report and reflects the company’s proactive approach to integrating environmental considerations into its leasing strategy and day-to-day operations.
“Our 2025 Impact Report highlights the disciplined, long term approach that guides Tanger’s corporate responsibility initiatives,” says Stephen Yalof, president and CEO of Tanger. “Tanger’s recognition as a Green Lease Leader reflects the progress we’re making, as well as our belief that collaboration with retailers can accelerate our efforts to advance efficiency, manage costs and deliver measurable impact for our stakeholders.”
Highlights include:
• The completion of two additional LEED Building Operations & Maintenance (O+M) certifications: for Tanger Outlets Nashville (Gold) and Bridge Street Town Centre, a Tanger property in Huntsville, Ala. (Silver).
• A 12% increase in Tanger’s solar energy generation capacity, increasing its total solar capacity to nearly 17.5 megawatts (MW) across 11 centers.
