  • Shanghai, China Overview Introduction
    Shanghai, China Overview Introduction The name Shanghai still conjures images of romance, mystery and adventure, but for decades it was an austere backwater. After the success of Mao Zedong's communist revolution in 1949, the authorities clamped down hard on Shanghai, castigating China's second city for its prewar status as a playground of gangsters and colonial adventurers. And so it was. In its heyday, the 1920s and '30s, cosmopolitan Shanghai was a dynamic melting pot for people, ideas and money from all over the planet. Business boomed, fortunes were made, and everything seemed possible. It was a time of breakneck industrial progress, swaggering confidence and smoky jazz venues. Thanks to economic reforms implemented in the 1980s by Deng Xiaoping, Shanghai's commercial potential has reemerged and is flourishing again. Stand today on the historic Bund and look across the Huangpu River. The soaring 1,614-ft/492-m Shanghai World Financial Center tower looms over the ambitious skyline of the Pudong financial district. Alongside it are other key landmarks: the glittering, 88- story Jinmao Building; the rocket-shaped Oriental Pearl TV Tower; and the Shanghai Stock Exchange. The 128-story Shanghai Tower is the tallest building in China (and, after the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the second-tallest in the world). Glass-and-steel skyscrapers reach for the clouds, Mercedes sedans cruise the neon-lit streets, luxury- brand boutiques stock all the stylish trappings available in New York, and the restaurant, bar and clubbing scene pulsates with an energy all its own. Perhaps more than any other city in Asia, Shanghai has the confidence and sheer determination to forge a glittering future as one of the world's most important commercial centers.

  • Q1 2010 Greater China Quarterly
    research Q1 2010 Greater china Quarterly retailers keen to expand In the first quarter of 2010, the growth of retail sales in Mainland China accelerated amid the government’s efforts to stimulate domestic demand. The value of retail sales reached RMB3.64 trillion in the first quarter, representing a 17.9% year-on-year rise—2.4 percentage points more than the average growth in 2009. National sales of automobiles, furniture as well as home appliances and audio-video equipment surged 39.8%, 37.6% and 29.6%, respectively. Meanwhile, retail sales in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou also saw strong growth, jumping 15.2%, 16.6% and 17.0%, respectively. According to China’s Ministry of Commerce, expansion by international retailers is expected to continue on the Mainland in 2010. International brands have started looking for retail space again, after sales have emerged from last year’s trough. Louis Vuitton and Ermenegildo Zegna will both open flagship stores in Lippo Plaza in Huaihai Road, Shanghai, while Qianmen Street in Beijing, which reopened in the third quarter of 2009, has attracted international brands such as H&M, Starbucks, Swatch Q1 2010 Greater China Quarterly and Nike, as well as 14 local, brand-name retailers. International brands now account for around 30% of the total retailers in Beijing’s Qianmen Street area. In Guangzhou, meanwhile, where the 2010 Asian Games will be held this November, a number of international brands, including Marks & Spencer, will launch their first stores in the city. Demand for retail space was robust in major Mainland cities, thanks to the increase in domestic demand and optimistic market sentiment.
