Retail and Hospitality Recovery

Retail and Hospitality Recovery

Tokyo’s retail and hospitality sectors, severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, are now showing strong signs of recovery as tourism rebounds. Tokyo is a major destination for both business travelers and tourists, drawn to the city for its rich cultural experiences, shopping, and entertainment. Retail spaces in high-traffic areas such as Ginza, Omotesando, and Shibuya are particularly attractive for investors. These districts are home to flagship stores of global luxury brands and trendy local boutiques, offering significant potential for rental income and capital appreciation. The hospitality sector is also set to grow, with major events like the 2025 Osaka Expo expected to drive up demand for hotels, serviced apartments, and vacation rentals. Investors who capitalize on these opportunities, particularly in prime locations near tourist attractions or business hubs, stand to benefit from increased tourism and spending in the coming years.
