Original: Uniqlo owner Fast Retailing posts record profit as Western sales overtake China
Fast Retailing, the Japanese parent of Uniqlo, has reported a record profit, with sales in Western markets surpassing those in China for the first time. The result marks a shift in the company's geographic growth, as demand in North America, Europe and other Western regions outpaces Chinese sales, once the retailer's key engine of expansion abroad.
Why now: The retailer's record earnings and the milestone of Western sales overtaking China signal a notable shift in global retail growth patterns.
