Desiree Bollier, chair and global chief merchant of the Bicester Collection told China Daily in an exclusive interview that with China being a key market, the London-based luxury outlet shopping village operator anticipates more growth in the world's second-largest economy.

"China is a huge economy. It's a force that stands in its own weight and its own right. As a global force... the diversity and the depth of this economy are unstoppable," Bollier said. "So it gives me confidence that actually the investment we made into being here is the absolute right thing to do."
