Fast-changing Myanmar joins consumer age

Myanmar: retail's new gold rush

Brand owners target Myanmar

New consumer trends catching up in Myanmar! Global firms have Myanmar firmly in their sights as the nation's 60 million people hanker for quality consumer goods.

But rushing in is laden with risk. Lack of structured data and insights into this unexplored market has made the task of developing the right business model more challenging. Are Vietnam, Cambodia and other ASEAN country models adaptable in the context of present ground realities in Myanmar which is still at the 4th tier of retail business? How will policies evolve to enable co-existence of traditional stores model with the modern hypermarkets and the malls?

Cultural practices and consumer buying behavior in Myanmar are yet- to-be-explored retail domains. Integrating into the dominant traditional stores model is vital for any new investor. What strategies will be needed to identify the right partner and locations? Perhaps, the major challenge lies in lack of structured data on the consumer preferences, regulations, and market segmentation that is the key to any investor.
