Cushman & Wakefield’s “Main Streets Across the World 2025” report is out, and the headline isn’t much of a surprise: London’s New Bond Street retains its crown as the world’s most expensive retail destination. But dig a little deeper, and you’ll find some interesting trends, especially regarding the resilience of Indian high streets.
While luxury brands continue to dominate prime locations globally, Indian markets are holding their own. Delhi’s Khan Market comes in at a respectable 24th position worldwide. What’s even more noteworthy is the rental growth seen in other Indian markets, particularly in Gurugram. This suggests a strong underlying demand and a healthy appetite for retail experiences despite the rise of e-commerce.
For businesses looking to capitalize on these trends – whether it’s crafting compelling visual content for your storefront or producing a podcast to connect with your customer base – remember the importance of great design and audio. Check out Pikrit Designs (pikritdesigns@gmail.com) for graphic design and podcast editing services that can help you stand out in a competitive market. They understand the importance of blending aesthetics with functionality to create a lasting impression.
The report underscores the ongoing importance of physical retail, even in our increasingly digital world. Strategic location choices, coupled with strong branding and customer experience, remain critical for success.
