The consumer and luxury market has seen significant change that's been accelerated through the Covid-19 pandemic.  In particular those business in the hospitality and retail sector, with a large real estate foot print, have been challenged the most.

​

Nevertheless, some businesses have adapted, focusing on online sales and an increased focus on marketing through social media channels.  Those retail businesses with a developed online offerings have managed to off set the impact of store closures with increased online sales.

​

Online sales have increased year on year from circa. 18% of retail sales in 2018 and sales accelerated through the Covid pandemic to circa. 30%.  As the pandemic stabilised online sales growth has moderated.
