  + stars: | 2023-11-17 | by ( Mimosa Spencer | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +5 min
With fewer shoppers heading to Burberry stores, clinching a sale will be key. The label has filled its stores with new styles across a wider price range, including a renewed emphasis on its staple outerwear. At Burberry he has applied colourful dandelion prints to garments and rolled out advertising campaigns with fuzzy ducklings. "We like what Burberry is doing with product and range architecture, however, the timing is not ideal," said analysts at RBC. Burberry Chief Financial Officer Kate Ferry said the company was "absolutely committed to protecting all of the consumer-facing areas".

☆ Japan retail sales up for 9th month led by tourism help
  + stars: | 2022-12-27 | by ( ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
Japanese retail sales rose for a ninth straight month in November, data showed on Tuesday, as the lifting of Covid-19 border controls and the government's domestic travel subsidy helped consumer demand. But from the previous month, sales fell from October, with price increases in daily necessities weighing on Japanese households as the nation's core consumer inflation rate hit a fresh 40-year high, indicating price hikes were broadening. Retail sales grew 2.6% from the year earlier but short of a median forecast of 3.7%. The pace of annual growth in sales, a barometer of private consumption, slowed from 4.4% in October and 4.8% in September. On a seasonally adjusted basis, retail sales slipped 1.1% in November from the previous month, down for the first time in five months.
