Is retailing in China coming of age?
Article Abstract:
The retail industry of China is expanding at the rate of nearly 20% a year, from $300 billion in 1996 to $350 billion in 1997. The country remains to be the largest emerging market in the world with its 1.2 billion consumers that have an increasing disposable income. China is still a bright prospect for growth and expansion for foreign retailers as experienced by such chains as US' Wal-Mart and 7-11, UK's Mark & Spencer and Tesco and Japan's Daiei and Seibu. Among the required qualities of a retailer to ensure business success in China are long-term commitment, flexibility, adaptability, resourcefulness and, particularly for American retailers, an adjustment in attitude.
