In H1 2016 the retailer activity remained high. None of the brands left the Moscow market in Q2 2016. 20 new retail chains entered the Moscow market in H1 2016. 15 of them opened first stores in shopping centres. Another 18 new brands announced their plans to enter the market during 2016. Among them are Walt Disney, Presse Café, Lillapois, Cortefiel, and others.
Olesya Dzuba, Director of Research Department CBRE in Russia said:
“On the back of oil price stabilization and ruble strengthening happened in the last several months, shopping centres recorded footfall increase. Nevertheless, the conversion rate of visitor to real purchaser is still low, limiting the pace of retailer sales growth. This in its turn translates into rental rates, which are almost 100% linked to retail sales. Thus, rental rates depend on consumer purchasing power, and their recovery may only start following income growth of population.”
