Built as a diptych research, it includes: - A quantitative part, where we have questioned 4,500 Chinese international travellers (1,500 living in Shanghai, 1,500 living in Beijing and 1,500 living in second-tier cities). - A qualitative part, where we have interviewed face-to-face Chinese international travellers (also from Shanghai, Beijing and a second-tier city). With such global work, we have being able to highlight what these somehow different Chinese have in common and what is specific when they travel, what they like or not, what they expect, both at airport and inflight, during the outbound trip and the inbound trip. We also questioned them about Luxury brands, product categories, prices, services, social networks, etc. Thanks to the quantitative part results, we now have the profiles of non-shoppers and their key reasons for non-entering the shops, and the non-buyers and their key reasons for non-purchasing. Focusing on buyers, for each specific product category, we can see what and why they bought, for whom (themselves, gift, request), how they planned shopping in advance, etc. Thanks to the qualitative part, we have defined 6 kind of Chinese shoppers, and analysed how they use the different kind of shopping places, from Airport Duty Free Shops to Downtown Department Stores outside of China. Key benefit for Brands, Operators, Airport Authorities or Airlines is to better understand how to improve the way to engage with the Chinese, both in China and outside of China. Ad-hoc data digging is a perfect opportunity to draw the profile of specific category buyers or brand buyers, or to compare behaviours at specific airports, thanks to criteria like gender, group travel or not, Business or Leisure travel, Frequent traveller or not, etc. To download the synopsis of this research, click here.

Why too many don't? It is believed that today less than 40% of the passengers enter airport shops, and half of then actually buy anything. Better understanding the traveler, how he behaves and what he expects will help Manufacturers, Operators & Landlords to better target these missing 80% non-buyers, as well as to help buyers to increase their baskets. Our parti-pris here will be to focus not on one particular location, but on the traveler nationality, analyzing the key elements: before the Airport / when in the shopping area / when in the shops. We have focused on as many as 3,900 international travelers native from 10 European countries (UK, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Netherlands, the Nordic countries & Russia), 3 Asian countries (Japan, Mainland China & South Korea) and 2 from the Americas (USA & Brazil), to be then able to define behavior profiles and see what are the common patterns, and what is specific for the different nationalities. We have investigated on how, based on their nationality, the passengers are behaving once in the Airport Shopping area, which factors drive them into the shops, or what keep them away; Which product category they look at and which one they buy; where they stand between planned purchase and impulse buying; the usage of the purchased goods (own use/gift/request/etc.); how they consider trying new brands or new products, exclusive products; their price perception of TR vs. local market; when they buy when traveling; their product affinity; their use of the Shop Advisors; the effect of promotion; etc. We have also a comparison by nationality of the key ratios in terms of footfall & conversion: % of Pax entering the shops by category & sub-category; % of buyers vs. Shop visitors & vs. total Pax.
