Number of Chinese luxury consumers to grow by 30% over next decade
12/03/2012
Cai Sujian, president of the organisation, has told local media that growth is being driven by more and more consumers becoming buyers of luxury items. He said that only 5% of the population bought high-end leathergoods and shoes and other luxury products at the moment, but that this would grow by between 25% and 30% per year over the next decade.
At current population levels, this growth would make the Chinese market for luxury goods a market of 390 million consumers.
