GAISHO has been famous for decades all over the world and played a major role in the development of department stores and luxury brands in Japan. But while brands and department stores are reviewing their policy towards VIP, a new type of luxury client is arizing that doesn’t wish anymore for the traditional GAISHO style. In 2020, with the new age of VIPs and more the "e-VIPs”, with COVID having us re-think our shopping behavior, it is not anymore about a dual market (shops vs e-commerce), all are merging in a NEW RETAIL, a way to think globally the user experience and brand recognition. 3 professionals will be sharing their observations and views on how luxury business is caring for its customers, including the influence of COVID on the clients’ behavior and brands' fidelity.
