Asia Academy For Retailing (亚洲零售学院)

The Asian economy, spearheaded by China and India and flanked by Japan, Korea and ASEAN, is growing at an amazing pace. Both Asians and foreign visitors to Asian countries are spending more. The Asian retailing industry is undergoing fundamental changes, with local retailers growing from strength to strength and with overseas retailers setting up more and more bases.

Towards the end of the last century, the Singapore government has the foresight of putting together strategies and plans to enhance Singapore’s position as a shopping destination and as an education hub. Both industry upgrading plans and human resource development programs have been implemented at the turn of the century and fruits begin to bear.

It is against this backdrop that the Asia Academy for Retailing (亚洲零售学院) was formed in early 2007 with Singapore as a base. Asia Academy for Retailing (亚洲零售学院) is spearheaded by a team of industry and training professionals from Singapore, USA, France and Japan. Asia Academy for Retailing (亚洲零售学院) is poised to contribute to the development of human resources and the growth of the retailing industry in Asia.
