INTERNATIONAL. Welcome to this edition of The Moodie Davitt Magazine, which carries a strong focus on the China market, including Chinese translation of key highlights.
Lagardère Travel Retail North Asia CEO Keith Tam assesses the impact of China’s soft economy and slower than anticipated recovery in outbound travel following COVID-19 – while remaining positive about long-term prospects for the regional business.
We put the spotlight on recent store openings, campaigns and launches in the market from China Duty Free Group, DFS Group and other players, alongside brand partners.
Plus we report on how travel, tourism and consumer spend shaped up over the recent Lunar New Year holiday, with data and insights from travel platforms Fliggy (owned by Alibaba) and Trip.com.
There is much more in this issue too, including on location reports from London Heathrow and London Luton airports, alongside insights from a new report into the vibrant Saudi Arabian luxury goods market.
Please enjoy this edition with our compliments. ✈
