With major markets such as Eastern Europe, Russia, China and India opening up to foreign investment, retailers are increasingly focusing expansion efforts into new territories to capitalise new international opportunities. With these opportunities comes the need to understand each local market and evaluate the actions and reactions of home and overseas competitors.

As the UK’s leading retail magazine, Retail Week published Retail World in recognition of the need to have a pan-European discussion forum to analyse and discuss the key international issues and benchmarks for retailing excellence.

Past issues have covered in depth articles and case studies on Metro, H&M, Tesco, Zara, Costco, Aeon and Starbucks. For details of the latest issues content, click here.
