Few retailers understand how to adapt to the different needs and
backgrounds of international travellers. Harness the burgeoning
levels of tourism and learn everything you need to get travellers
engaged with your business and spending money, with insight from
LVMH, Harrods, CHANEL and more. The modern traveller is an enigma.
These potential customers, young and old, are in search of
memorable experiences, just as much as physical products. They want
to make their trip unforgettable, while minimizing their impact on
the environment. Leading Travel and Tourism Retail is an invaluable
guide for any retail professional who wants to benefit from the
increasing number of travellers who are venturing abroad ready to
spend money, on everything from luxury goods and souvenirs to
cultural activities and experiences. Engaging and accessible, it
covers everything from creating a business plan and analyzing the
competition, to product considerations and the role of technology
and data, offering a glimpse behind the inner workings of some of
the best-known brands in the world. Delivering invaluable insight
through fascinating interviews from high-profile professionals
including Group President of LVMH Retail, CEO of Harrods, and
President of CHANEL foundation, this is a must-have handbook for
achieving retail success in the continually evolving, multifaceted
world of travel and tourism. FULL LIST OF CONTRIBUTORS: - Jacques
