Supply chains and more specifically, the disruption of supply chains have never been more in the spotlight than since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Supply chain teams around the world have been called upon to rapidly adapt to volatile conditions as lockdowns swept across the globe causing scarcity of product, which has also been subsequently compounded by acute bottlenecks.

The redesign of supply chain and logistics networks in light of geopolitical, technological, demographic and urbanisation trends has been especially prevalent over recent years to optimise the combination of supplier, manufacturing, inventory, storage, and distribution flows to meet the needs of customers in the most cost-effective way.

This report, The Role of Asia Pacific in Global Supply Chains External Link, is the first in a series by Cushman & Wakefield focussing on the impacts of disruption, customer buying behaviour and the underlying megatrends on the design of supply chain and logistics networks.

Challenges persist and recovery will take time, but opportunity remains on multiple levels for Hong Kong SAR hotel investors, owners and operators.


Hong Kong SAR1 continues to attract interest from those who recognise the city's longer-term potential, despite challenges faced with COVID-19 and border restrictions that have led to a lack of mainland and international visitors. Nevertheless, the hotel sector performed well in 2021 compared to the year before, with certain hotels being used as quarantine hotels and a boost in staycation demand and extended-stay offerings.

Set to become the world's leading wealth management centre with over USD3.2 trillion assets under management (AUM) by 2025, major infrastructure, commercial and leisure initiatives will further elevate Hong Kong SAR's position as a global city with further long-term potential.

In this special report, we look at:
  • The performance of hotels in Hong Kong SAR, the operating environment and the sector's supply up to 2026

  • Key trends and challenges in the hotel sector, including technology adoption, asset enhancement and Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG)

  • The city's infrastructure and leisure initiatives with potential benefits for the hotel sector

  • Challenges and opportunities with investing in hotel assets in Hong Kong SAR

The performance of Sydney and Japan hotels are expected to be driven by increasing domestic travel on the rollout of vaccinations, while international visitors won’t arrive in masses anytime soon.

In addition, Asia’s cruise industry has been recovering quickly as operators nimbly tap into pent-up travel demand, which could grow further with mass vaccinations in Asia and globally.

In the past quarter, hotel deals remained at historically low levels, as owners hold rather than sell assets at a discount, given support from banks and governments.

In Colliers Hotel Insights | Q2 2021, we look at:
  • Why invest in hotels?
  • How increasing interstate travel should improve Sydney hotel performance
  • Domestic demand to prop up Japan's accommodation market
  • Recommendations for hotel investors amid limited deals, as hotel owners wait and see
  • The rapid recovery of the cruise industry in H1 2021
