to reach and influence the world’s largest
and fastest growing retail market

Second edition - 2010
June 2009 saw the launch of retail Asia expo & Congress in Hong Kong. The event comprised The Retail Technology Expo and The Retail Design & In-Store Marketing Expo as co-located shows together with The Retail Asia Congress. ALL involved – visitors and exhibitors – declared it was a complete success. It returns in June 2010 much bigger than before. Nearly all of the launch exhibitors have rebooked their booths, most with significantly larger sizes!
Here’s why it was such an exceptional hit: Retail Asia Expo & Congress was the first professionally organised business exhibition for the Asia Pacific’s retail sector which is the world’s largest and fastest growing. Most international retail brands are finding their domestic markets to offer limited growth prospects or are in decline. Therefore they look to Asia and China in particular for expansion.
The location was perfect: Hong Kong is rightly seen as the retail capital of Asia where diversity and quality of the shops are a match for anywhere else in the world. It is a substantial and sophisticated market in its own right. The geographical proximity of Hong Kong to China, with a population of nearly 1.3 billion, means it is also on the doorstep of the largest consumer market in the world. And being in the centre of the Asia Pacific region means its catchment area includes most of the retail markets with the greatest growth potential for the next five years.
The region is highly competitive and retailers have to be more innovative than anywhere else to succeed. They must excel in in-store design and embrace the latest high-technology systems to satisfy their customer needs. These vital aspects are addressed by the two core elements of the show - shop design and retail technology.

The retail Asia Congress also runs alongside the expos, brings together hundreds of leading retailers, architects, brand owners and suppliers from around the world for a high-level conference to cover the most critical strategic issues in the industry.
With over 150 high ranking delegates and an excellent, widely admired programme it was clearly a great success in 2009. It brought together top retailers, brand experts, property companies, agencies and designers in Asia to talk about the key issues affecting their businesses such as building brands, connecting with customers, dealing with rising costs, identifying the next hot markets and growth strategies for their businesses.

education and inspiration
An extensive program of FREE seminars and workshops, aimed at informing, educating and inspiring retailers and brand managers takes place within the exhibition area. Each expo has its own tailored programme. These were so popular that crowds formed outside the full theatres for most sessions and capacity will be expanded for 2010.
Advisory Committee
The event has the support of an Advisory Committee consisted of leading retail operators and specialists, plus the Hong Kong Retail Management Association as well as numerous other professional associations and media from around the region.
Their ideas and encouragement were vital in shaping the launch event and a new committee with fresh ideas will contribute to the growing event. Created for them and their staff, this show will continue to meet their changing interests and needs.

“Retail Asia Expo was an excellent professional exhibition where the seminars were a real attraction. In the past years we have seen a trend in major computer and IT trade shows of deteriorating exhibitor and visitor numbers but Retail Asia Expo delivered and lived up to our expectations. We are doubling our booth size for the 2010 show. Retail Asia Expo was a cost effective way to market and produced an excellent return on investment!”– Ms. Sophie Cheng, project Manager, eastop Computer Consultants Ltd.

The visitors we met at our booth were absolutely the right audience for us, none of the housewives, students, or casual inquirers that we met at others show. Retail Asia Expo delivered real decision makers. The audience had just the right feel.”– Ms Mandy ng, Sales & Marketing Director, ISo-production Ltd.
