Post-Christmas Sale Shoppers Stay 91福利社

World Business Report

Available for over a year

Boxing Day shoppers in Britain appear to have chosen to stay home and buy online. Alan Clarke is chief European economist for Scotiabank and tells us whether Black Friday discounts have eaten into this year's post-Christmas sale period. Also in the programme, we hear from Rich Gelfond, chief executive of Imax, what cinemas are doing to compete with the comfort and convenience of people's living rooms. We have a report from Sardinia on a revolutionary digital trading system which is transforming the way local businesses interact. Plus we hear about the growth of an industry built around scaring audiences in immersive theatre experiences. (Picture: Sale signs in a shop window. Picture credit: EPA.)
