The World Market for Retail

In the global retail industry, macroeconomic concerns continue to weigh on consumers, placing a heavy burden on retailers specialising in sales of discretionary goods. Even so, thanks to the skyrocketing popularity of online shopping and the growing affluence of consumers in Asia, global retail sales recorded positive, albeit subdued, growth in 2024. Future growth will be largely dependent on the continued expansion of e-commerce and the remarkable rise of the Asia Pacific retail sector.
