For the sixth time in succession THE LOCATION GROUP publishes its unique Retail Market Study. The last year’s edition had a size of nearly 1,000 pages. This year we cover the retail development of the 150 most important cities for fashion retail worldwide. It is reflected in the size of 1,500 pages and covering more than 3,000 store openings.
We decided to split the book into three parts: In the first book we cover the retail development in Europe. Additionally we included the development in the Holiday resorts worldwide. The second book includes Middle East, Asia and Pacific, and Africa. Information on North and Latin America is available in book three with two specials, the Retail M&A Deals and the Retailers’ Expansion Plans. All three books together form the Retail Market Study 2014.
For this third worldwide report of its kind, THE LOCATION GROUP again scouted all highly frequented retail locations and shopping malls worldwide. The previous reports reached 100,000 readers so far. The very positive feedback and numerous requests we received on the 2012 and 2013 reports prompted us to extend our study to cover over 800 high streets and 500 shopping malls.
European premium and luxury retailers are expanding rapidly into Asia and Latin America. Africa is also a target for expansion but a
little less than Asia and Latin America. This trend is reflected in an enormous increase in the premium and luxury shop openings.
For nine years THE LOCATION GROUP has been one of the leading international retail real estate boutique agencies for tenants, own-ers, and investors of retail properties and shopping centers world-wide.
All data compiled in the Retail Market Study is the fundamental base for our new online website project with the goal to bring today’s offline retail real estate world online. Retailers, landlords, investors and brokers can expect the launch of our online database soon.
THE LOCATION GROUP wishes you an enjoyable reading experience and we do hope you will find this years report both informative and enjoyable.

KERInG GRoupppR rebranded to KeringIn March 2013, the PPR Group was renamed into Kering which is the new corporate umbrella brand that encompasses François-Henri Pinault’s collection of luxury brands owned by his family: Gucci, Bottega Veneta, Saint Laurent Paris, Brioni, Balenciaga, Alexander McQueen, Puma, Stella McCartney, Christopher Kane, Girrard Perregaux.
PPR which stood for Pinault, Printemps La Redoute is obsolete, since the group sold Parisian Printemps department store many years ago, while La Redoute was sold in early 2013.
But why was PPR not named Gucci Group? The Gucci brand is not only the largest in terms of sales but Pinault has understood the importance of its Italian identity. However, putting Saint Laurent Paris or Alexander McQueen under an “Italian umbrella” would not be feasible.
As for the actual meaning of Kering, the group insists its inspira-tion is drawn from the Breton language, in which Kering means
‘house’ or ‘foyer’. However, in Indonesian, Kering means “dry” or “dried”. It appears Pinault’s ambitious rebranding has not only been rushed but also could not come at a worst time from an investment point of view, given the uncertainty surrounding Gucci’s performance in China, the huge losses of Puma and the continuous investments into Saint Laurent Paris (recently rebranded from YSL) and Brioni – both brands yet to reach the stability and growth of Bottega Veneta, the true flagship and engine of the entire group.
Kering sold off Redcats childrenswear to alpha private EquityFrench retail conglomerate Kering agreed to sell its Cyrillus and Vertbaudet children’s clothing brands to Alpha Private Equity Fund for 119 million Euro including debt. The deal was closed in the middle of 2013.
The sale was the latest in a string of deals by Kering as it looked to sell off parts of its Redcats mail-order business, after it was unable to find a buyer for the operation as a whole. At the beginning of December 2012, Kering (still named PPR back then) announced it

aswould sell Redcats’ women’s plus-size brand OneStopPlus Group to Charlesbank Capital Partners and Webster Capital.
Kering sold Ellos to nordic CapitalFrench luxury and sports brand Kering confirmed the selling of Ellos, the Scandinavian unit of its Redcats business, to Nordic Capital for an enterprise value of 300 million Euro (395 million Dollar). The deal was closed in April 2013.
Kering bought stake in Christopher KaneKering bought another piece of London’s lively fashion scene, striking a deal to acquire a 51 % stake in Christopher Kane. The French group said it plans to seize on the Scottish designer’s
notoriety and creative prowess to accelerate expansion and develop his business as a global luxury brand.
Plans include opening Kane’s first free-standing boutique – likely in London in 2014 – and adding a second ready-to-wear range. Financial terms were not disclosed.
Kering acquired tanneryKering revealed that it has acquired France Croco, an elite producer of tanned skins. Located in the Normandy region of France, the tannery is believed to be the third largest in the world and supplies to the top fleet of luxury firms in Italy and France, including brands owned by Kering and its luxury rivals…
