The figure represents 37% of sales in 2019.

Stores at Changi Airport recorded a total sales of $1.1b in 2022, or 37% of the airport’s concession sales in 2019, pre-pandemic.

In the same period, the airport recorded over 13 million transactions, averaging about 35,000 transactions each day.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
