Now Available: Luxury Goods Retailing in Middle East and Africa, 2014-2019

Luxury goods retail sales in the Middle East and Africa (MEA) are expected to remain strong, growing at a CAGR of 7.2% during the forecast period. The rising middle class population, surging purchasing power, better educated young millennials, and government initiatives to boost tourism are driving growth in the region. New luxurious spaces such as the Boulevard Mall in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia and the Sandton Diamond Walk in Johannesburg, South Africa have created new high-end retail avenues for brands to expand and enter these countries. Likewise, a mega-store by the Chalhoub group in Abu Dhabi, Saudi Arabia, and the Azrieli Sarona upscale mall in Israel, are planned to open in late 2015 and 2017 respectively, which will further drive more luxury players in the region.
