Share of new luxury store openings in Middle East doubles in 2022

The focus of the new openings is in Dubai.

The share of new luxury stores that opened in the Middle East in 2022 doubled to reach 6% of the total globally, according to a report by Savills.

This is due to the luxury brands that continued to focus on “relatively underserved affluent markets” amidst the reduced international travel.
