Case Study

Isla & Caraibica

The fashion market in China is expected to be responsible for 30% of the global fashion industry’s market growth and become the world’s second biggest market by 2020. With China’s GDP increasing by about 7% every year, spending on fashion and style grows in-line with this. While brands used to just focus on China’s biggest cities, with the increase of the middle class’s purchasing power, more and more companies are targeting second-tier cities across the country.
