Recommendation

The Economist Intelligence Unit’s overview of trends in global consumer goods and retail markets through 2017 offers worthy analysis and information. It’s a road map that identifies the best destinations to steer toward, as well as the trenches and dead ends to avoid. getAbstract recommends this statistics-heavy article to all manufacturers, retail professionals and investors seeking a route ahead in a still-uncertain world.

Take-Aways

  • By 2017, emerging economies, including China, India and Russia, will dominate global retail growth.
  • China’s annual retail sales will be worth approximately 50% more – “in dollar terms” – than US sales.
  • Food producers must balance competing on pricing against the rise in commodity prices, which will squeeze margins.
