Summary
The Coronavirus (COVID-19) company impact report analyses how the pandemic will impact Fast Retailling's performance.
While Fast Retailing has been recording impressive growth over the past four years due to a strong international performance, the pandemic has drastically hindered trade as consumers cut back on discretionary spending.
The retailer has had a more drawn out exposure to the impacts of the virus than retailers that just operate in Europe/ North America or Asia, but this also means that it can implement its learnings from store reopenings and other innovations from Asia in Europe.
