"2024 saw an unexpected increase in new store openings with an increased focus on the Asia Pacific region beyond China."

"We sat down with Sunny Gill, who joined the family business when Gill Capital was formed in 2007, to discuss the evolution of the Southeast Asian market, the future of retail in the region and the crucial role an expert partner plays in navigating such a diverse and dynamic landscape."

"Store portfolios have lagged global wealth creation; opportunity for growth over the longer term persists. But the next era of expansion will mark a return to luxury fundamentals and a move away from a global to a hyper-local strategy."

"Our cross-border lead in the Middle East, takes us through the opportunities the region offers and what brands need to know if they are to maximise their reach in this fast-paced market."

"What the recent peak in creative director changes could mean for luxury real estate."

"We talk to the custodians of Oslo’s premier luxury destination, Promenaden, also home to the world’s oldest continuously running department store, Steen & Strøm, to explore the innovative strategies that have kept it at the forefront of luxury retail. We touch on the unique challenges and opportunities within the Nordic market and how they continue to redefine customer experiences in an ever-changing luxury landscape."

"A refocus on customers in real estate strategies."

"Global alpha cities all deliver reach, but their scale and high concentrations of HNWIs means that they can also support more ‘localised’ luxury destinations, which have been moving up the agenda for brands as they bed-down on their VICs."
