The new CBRE report, ‘How Active are Retailers Globally?’, shows Cambodia almost bottom of the list among ASEAN nations for foreign retailers’ investment expansion plans.

The report shows 26 percent of surveyed retailers worldwide identified Southeast Asian countries as target markets for 2016. Cambodia was identified as a potential target market by only 2 percent of those retailers with only Laos below it at 1 percent.

Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia were the top three countries identified.

CBRE Cambodia put the figures in context noting caution among retailers together with positive medium to long term potential for the kingdom shown by the number of international standard mails opening and in the pipeline.
