Welcome to the 4th Annual Retail Asia Congress!  Once again, we bring you the definitive retail event of the year, featuring the very latest trends and innovations in the Asia Pacific retail market.  With the theme of “Enabling Growth”, this year’s programme addresses the very core of every retail executive’s concerns – how to manage globalisation and expansion while maintaining control, brand equity and quality.

This year’s conference agenda focuses on three key areas within that theme:

• Financing and managing growth in NEW MARKETS
• Achieving growth by increasing sales and attracting NEW CUSTOMERS
• Taking advantage of NEW CHANNELS to increase retail growth

Hear honest and insightful case studies about how retailers have expanded their business geographically in Asia, as well as organically.  Discover how they overcame the challenges of setting up in new areas, financing, staffing, marketing and managing their businesses.  Gain valuable insights into consumer behaviour in different markets, how they view international brands, and how you can connect with the new type of lifestyle consumer.

Beacon would like to thank our Advisory Board for their significant contributions and input in to the programme so far:
