The world’s most expensive retail rents

Louis Vuitton The Landmark Hong Kong 468x281 The worlds most expensive retail rents

As a shopping destination, Hong Kong has over the past decade charted a course towards the very high-end in brands — and it seems retailers are now paying a very expensive price for the trend.
With a 46 percent rise in rents, quarter on quarter, Hong Kong is now second only to New York in terms of what tenants pay for retail locations across the city.
Hong Kong last year surpassed Sydney as the second-most expensive city in the world, with the average cost being paid now hitting US$1,687 per square foot per year according to global commercial property company CB Richard Ellis.

New York still tops the charts with rents at US$1,900 but Hong Kong seems intent on closing the gap as the world’s leading brands continue to set up shop all over town.

Local media here have reported that even US casual retailer Abercrombie & Fitch has gotten in on the act and is paying HK$7.5 million (US$964,000) a month for a shop in downtown Central that’s estimated to cover around 12,000 square feet. It has up until now been occupied by high-end clothing company Shanghai Tang.
The fact that Hong Kong is the favorite shopping destination for mainland China plays a significant role in the demand for retail space here — a record 22.7 million arrived during 2010 and April saw 2.1 million cross the border.
Overall, retail rental rates grew 3.8 percent globally, year on year, according to CBRE.
