https://www.youtube.com/embed/5fY484jOeLA


This area is very expensive. This is very unusual and unique custom. They keep dead body for six months. They do party very well. This coffin is in the shape of bird. Many children are playing here. Hey guys very good morning and welcome back to the new vlog. My name is Tourvashu. Currently, I am in Accra which is the capital city of Ghana. Now, I have Sarfaraz brother with me. He is from Mumbai. Hi guys everyone. I am very big fan of Tourvashu. Finally I have come in a vlog, I am very excited. Today we are going to explore Accra, we will see what are the things that we can cover in this video.


Stay tuned. Even he is doing vlog with me. -No nothing like that. I am very excited but, I am scared while editing. He has helped me a lot in Ghana. Thank you so much brother. It's my pleasure. We have to encourage these type of people, I love to do that. When an youngster does something like this, we have to encourage them. Since we are in a foreign country, we have to encourage them more. We have to support them and stay with them. We have to stay together and we should always maintain peace. From how many years are you staying in Ghana? - Its more than 10 years. I Came in 2012. I was in marketing, so I have explored a Ghana lot.


I have also visited Togo. - I am going to Togo in another 2-3 days. Togo is a very good country. -What do you do? Currently, I am working in a construction company. We have a mall named New York construction Mall. I work as supply chain manager and general manager. We also do construction and we provide constructed home for people. If anybody of your subscribers want to make a home in Ghana, they can contact me.


We are going to explore some interesting places in Accra. There is a church on the way, I have come here many times. I did not get chance to visit the church, so now we are going to visit the church. It is a very big church in Accra Where is the entry from? This is a very famous Cathedral. This is Qodesh church. It is very big and very popular. Majority of the population in Ghana are Christians. So there are many church's here. There are many big church's in Ghana. This is a Christian majority country. 70% of the population follow Christianity, I have mentioned in one of my videos.


If you come on Sunday, this will be very crowded. Currently, we are in Qodesh Church, this is very big and very massive. This is a multi floor Church, this is the ground floor. We are in first, there are 2 more floors. Roof is very big. I talked with many Ghana people, they told me that they visit Church only on Sundays. There are nobody in this Church, only I am here. Currently, I have Foster with me. You have seen him in the last video. After Church, we have come to National mosque of Ghana. This is the largest mosque in Ghana and second largest mosque in West Africa. The biggest mosque of West Africa is there in Senegal.


This Mosque was started in 2010. Due to fund issues, this Mosque was not constructed. After that, Turkish government supported this. This Mosque is constructed by both Ghana and Turkish government. This complete Mosque has been constructed in Ottoman architecture. There are four big pillars. This is also known as the signature of Ottoman architecture. This Mosque was opened in 2021. This is a very big Mosque, it can hold up to 15,000 people. This Mosque is very beautiful from the outside but is also very beautiful from the inside. After this Mosque, we are going to a place which is famous throughout the world. Before 2-3 years, in the peak time of covid, a meme was Viral. That was about coffin dance. This coffin dance was very popular 3 years back. This Meme was originated from Ghana. So now we are going to the place where the coffin is made and the dance was originated. This is the number one hotel in Accra. This is the number one hotel and also very expensive hotel. This is a 5 star hotel and one room cost around $250 per night. 250 Dollars per night. The name of this area is Osu.


Osu is one of the very oldest and very well Developed area. This is a very posh area, you can call it as 'New York of Accra'. There are clubs, restaurants and many shopping malls. This is a very good place. This place will be crowded on the weekends like Christmas and Easter. They arrange many lightings and fireworks in all the celebrations. This is a very expensive place. Whoever comes to Ghana, they will first take you to Osu. You have to explore the streets of OSU. The ancient people of Ghana are from Osu. This is a very ancient place, before it used to be ruled by kings. Now nobody rules here.


There is king in Kumasi region. There is Kumasi region in Ghana, king rule is followed there. If he tells anything, then president should do that. He is a very respectful person. He is a very popular king. This comes to the greater Accra region. Hey guys, very good morning from Accra, Ghana. I'm continuing this video from yesterday's part. I wanted to explore some more places yesterday. I couldn't go there, so I am exploring those places today.


Today, I am going to Foster house. I will stay in his house and I will explore Accra today. After that I am going to Togo, which is my next country in Africa. I have taken taxi because if I had taken tro-tro, I had to change it three times. I have taken taxi, the fare of this ride is on 25 CEDI which is 200 INR. The distance covered is around 12 km. This is strawberry flavored yoghurt. In West Africa trip, yoghurt drink and milkshake are the lifeline. When I don't get anything to drink, I drink yoghurt or milkshake. We had studied in our school that 'Milk is a complete food'.


There are Indian restaurants in the cities where many Indians live. I am in Accra from past three days and I am having Indian food always. Something is happening every time, so I am not able to show you. Compared to other West African countries, Ghana taxi fare is very less. If I compared with Guinea-Bissau, Senegal and Ivory coast. I am very surprised in this country. He is Foster, you have already met him. The name of the locality is Nima, which is one of the oldest locality. This area is very densely populated it is also known as Nima market. We will go to his house and keep our bags. Then we will leave to our destination. Look at the streets. Very old locality of Accra. She is my first sugar mummy. Look at the area of locality. He is telling me that this is a complete Muslim area.


pexels-photo-4262173.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=650&w=940

99% of the people are Muslims. This is some school, I will show you. This is a school, kids are studying. This is the neighborhood locality of Foster . This Is Foster house. I am going to stay here and I am going to leave tomorrow morning. I have come here for single night. This is his room. There is also a television and there are many photos. There is also an AC. This is his neighborhood, I have come here to see smoke fish. This is their Stove and gas. There is a smoke everywhere. This looks very hot. Fish and rice is staple food of complete West Africa.


Maximum people eat this all the 3 times. 'Fish and rice' They eat in different methods such as gravy, fried. Gravy is known as sauce. We have come to a local School in Accra. The School has a number plate, which we put on vehicle. There is also a barcode. I had went to a local School to show you the local school and kids.


They told me to take permission from principal. He is out, he might take time to come back. I cannot wait for long time because I have to go to some other place. If I come early, I will definitely show you otherwise I cannot. Now, we are going to see fancy or fantasy coffins. This is a very popular culture of Ghana. We are going to the place where coffins are manufactured and designed but it is very far from here. It is around 35 km so we are in a hurry. We will take a transport, it might take 2 hours to reach.


It will be night when we come back because it is very far. It is in the greater Accra. I wanted to visit this place yesterday, but I did not know that this place is far. I have postponed the plan for today. These are local households. When it rain, the weather will be pleasant but when it doesn't then it will be humid. Today the weather is very hot. I am sweating a lot, I have to go in these Roads. He is taking me in some interior roads. This game is very popular in West Africa. I had seen this in many countries. I had seen this things in Guinea-Bissau, but I had not recorded. I was not having camera at that moment. Let's see who wins. Kids on the one side and Foster on the other side. Many kids are playing here, there are four boards. This game is also played for gambling. I have seen these people playing it for money, even children's do it. Even adults play this game for gambling. We have come to the road, where will we find the transport.


I can only see tro-tro everywhere. It is available for all destinations. We have got a transport. From here we are going to big station from there I will find the last transport. This is local street food. They are selling fish, chicken and fried potato. They also selling plantain which is the fried raw banana. There are many Street foods. I have changed my transport, it is near the big station. This directly takes us to the destination where we want to go. This vehicle is full. This is a local snack. This looks like a coconut biscuit. I thought it is salty but this is fried. We have reached Teshie, which is there in the outskirts of Accra. We took a lot of time to come. I think, I spent more than 1.5 hours. The approximate cost was around 10 CEDI because public transport is very cheap.


These are fancy coffins. This is in the shape of fish. This is the eye of fish. He is going to cut this and open the mouth of the fish. The inhabitants of this place do this ancient culture. These people believe in giving the best send off for the dead person. They celebrate the death. They celebrate the death. They party very well and they enjoy the celebration. There is a coffin here, this is in the shape of a music instrument Tabla. This is in is in the shape of cannon. There are different type of coffin which these people have already made. This is a truck shaped coffin for truck drivers. This might be an iPhone lover so this coffin is in the shape of iPhone.


There might be a person whose occupation is related with pen, they have made this design for him. This is fish, which is ready. There are many occupations and coffins are related to the occupations. A person might be in the army, this is a tank shaped coffin. Look at this coffin and it is in the shape of camera. He might shoe seller, this coffin is in the shape of shoe. The coffin is decided on the basis of the achievement, occupation and passion. They prepare the coffin as per the demands. There are so many options, I cannot show you everything. They are doing it from 70 years. There is pastry, cake and fruits shaped coffins. The price of the coffin starts from 12000 INR. The maximum retail price of a coffin is 50000 INR. Some shops will have more expensive coffins. Making coffin is very expensive. For people who can afford, they will make a coffin instantly. But for the people who cannot afford a coffin, they store the dead body in cold storage.


The keep the body in cold storage for more than 6 months. So that they can save the money in a year and make a coffin for them. They do not give send off for the body without making fancy coffin. There are many carpentry shops, in which coffin are designed. We have come to the one of the biggest and the most popular coffin shop. The name of this Shop is 'Kane kwei carpentry.' We are going to the first floor, he was telling me that, he had a very big show room. Due to broadening of road, that has been demolished. So he is constructing a new shop. There is a coffin in the shape of bird and this is coffin is in the shape of beer bottle. This coffin is in the shape of beer bottle. He is the grand son 'Kane kwei'. This shop is named after him. This is very big and very popular shop. The price of These coffins are very high. It is around 80000 INR for 1 coffin. He told me it will take a week but here he is telling me it will take around three weeks to make one coffin. People are actually burry the coffins on Friday or Saturday.


There will be funeral party on Sunday. People come, they drink, eat, party and celebrate the death. They believe that, if he gets a good send off, he will reborn in a very good place. This is very unusual and very unique custom. I don't think this customs and funerals are followed in any other countries. You might have seen a coffin dance video 2 years back, which is originate from Ghana. That music used to go like this.. When there is a Funeral, people take the coffin and dance. This coffin dance was introduced 20 years back. People were unemployed so they started this. From then it has become famous and it has also become the custom. We are in Greater Accra but not in the Accra City. We are going back to Accra. I will end this video and I will meet you in a new video.

How Fashion Megabrands Will Adapt to Post-Pandemic Life | The Business of Fashion Show

https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZK-zhYptqaU


The luxury industry is reinventing the way it connects with customers in a landscape forever altered by the pandemic. So, here we are in Paris, and one of the things I absolutely wanted to do was to understand how all of the time that people have spent at home has changed the way they shop in stores, and there's kind of no better place to do that than here at La Samaritaine. Hello! Hello, Imran. So nice to meet you, are we doing this? Welcome, welcome here, you know, to Samaritaine. Oh, it's amazing.


At the time of its reopening, following a $1 billion restoration, Parisians are keen to take a look around, but luxury tourists are nowhere to be found. So, for now, the all-important Chinese luxury customers are getting used to shopping at home. Chinese consumers have now come around to accepting the prices in China. That psychological barrier is already overcome. Top luxury executives are still bullish because this is an industry with built-in growth. The share of the young generations in the total business is increasing, so there is a very strong and, I think, structural rebalancing between people from 40 years old and above and people from 40 years and below.


And this is driving exceptional expansion for the biggest luxury brands, whose businesses have already surpassed pre-pandemic levels. But how are luxury executives preparing themselves as the world reopens? We have more and more customers, so our customers are going everywhere. Past year, double digits in every single country, so we have more and more customers. What we wear says a lot about who we are. I'm Imran Amed, and this is The Business of Fashion Show. I'm on a journey to see how fashion is recalibrating amid the pandemic to balance profit with purpose. Join me to discover how fashion shapes business, culture, and identity, and to meet the people forging fashion's future. This is La Samaritaine, where the boast used to be, "On trouve tout à la Samaritaine," the place where you can find everything. The iconic Parisian department store was founded in 1870, but closed in 2005 due to health and safety concerns only four years after LVMH, the world's largest luxury group, bought a controlling stake.


LVMH spent years refurbishing its Art Nouveau and Art Deco architecture, but delays plagued the construction, and when La Samaritaine was finally ready in April, 2020, the pandemic stopped everything. Now, La Samaritaine has finally reopened, and I am excited to explore. Shall we take a look around quickly? Yes, absolutely. All right, amazing. My tour guide is Eleonore De Boysson, President for Europe, the Middle East and Africa of DFS, the luxury travel retailer. It was her mission to bring new life back to this old Parisian landmark. I want to learn how her plans have changed. How do you think this is different? You know, Paris has no shortage of department stores, right? In the LVMH group, you have Le Bon Marché. There's also Printemps, there's Galeries Lafayette. Yeah, yeah. When you have so much competition, how do you create something different? The first thing is, you know, we really created a living place, not just a place for shopping, and it's a combination, if you want, of different things.


I mean, first you have, you know, all they offer, which is not only the big international brands, but this, you know, multiplicity of smaller brands that are really surprises for Parisians or for tourists, and so on. I asked Eleonore how she was planning for the current situation, where the tourists, expected to drive 50% of foot traffic and an even higher percentage of spend, are missing. I really believe that if we do something which is suited for the Parisians, if they really like the store and come back often because we give them reasons to come back, because the store is changing, you know, all the time and will evolve permanently, I believe that's where tourists want to go because they want to go in an authentic place when they come back. You know, with all of that spending not happening here, you know, how do you adapt to this situation, because obviously you had the budgets and plans for, like, all these Chinese tourists. Obviously, I mean, obviously, you know, it will be a couple of years, you know, before the tourists come back. I mean, maybe in a year, a year and a half, you know, a little bit more difficult, but it doesn't really matter because we are really thinking, you know, in the long-term.


So, you know, whether we are here for decades. To understand how luxury fashion brands are adapting, we must first understand how the luxury customer base is changing. Who drives luxury spending now? The Chinese, to the tune of $130 billion a year. That's more than 35% of the global total. Who are the decision-makers of the future? The under 25 global demographic known as Gen Z. Around the world and in real life, and certainly on TikTok, Gen Z are hyper-connected, niche-influenced and socially informed. Overlay these two groups and you get what China calls its post-1995 and post-2000 generations. For luxury brands, that's a valuable Venn diagram. Luxury sales in China grew by 45% in 2020, where the under 25s spent five times more than their peers in the US. When you take into account the influence they have over family spending, that figure rises further. 40% of young, single Chinese living in Tier-1 cities call themselves the Moonlight Clan because they tend to spend their entire monthly salary over a single lunar cycle, but with international travel curtailed, reaching the Chinese on home turf is vital. Mega brands are harmonizing global prices and going all out to spark engagement.


Now, competition comes from chic homegrown labels. After three decades of aspiration for European brands, more than a quarter say they prefer made in China to made in France. To win Gen Z's hearts and wallets, brands must wear their values on their sleeves. To better understand the impact of the pandemic on luxury customers in China, I caught up with one of the most influential figures in the global fashion industry. For the first time in more than a decade, Angelica Cheung is missing Haute Couture Week in Paris, which happens twice a year, in January and July. Hi, Angelica. Hi, Imran. Good to see you again. I know. We've managed to keep in touch quite a lot over the last 12 months, but only virtually because you've been in China the whole time. Well, yes, you know, it's unbelievable.


The former editor-in-chief of Vogue China also has a new job. In February, 2021, she announced that she was crossing over to join the venture capitalists. Sequoia Capital China recently invested in Montreal-based SSENSE, a luxury e-commerce company targeted at Gen Z and now valued at $4.1 billion. Angelica was named to the board to advise on engaging with the key demographic driving luxury growth, Chinese youth. At some point, Angelica, China will open its borders and people will be able to travel again. What behaviors of this Chinese luxury customer are going to stick? I think that what's changed about Chinese consumers is that they are so much online now, so digital, so much into e-commerce, you know, getting everything, and also, you know, don't forget that Chinese consumers have now come around to accepting the prices in China.


That psychological barrier is already overcome. What do you think are the biggest changes in the way the Chinese customers' mindset and, you know, attitude is towards this industry? Like, you said they've become more sophisticated. Well, I think, for one, the obvious change is the shift from logo to no logo, and now the new generation, logo again, but in a very different way, you know. Earlier, 15 years ago, the logo was really for very few people who became more successful or affluent.


They were really symbols of status at that time. Yeah. And then fast forward, the new logo period is really the Gen Z, the Millennials generation. The interlocking Cs of Chanel, one of the most recognizable brands in the world which generates more than $10 billion in annual revenue. Chanel is owned by the elusive Wertheimer family that avoids press attention. Luckily, they have an affable president, in the form of Bruno Pavlovsky, who runs the global fashion business. Under his leadership, Chanel is holding fast to physical boutiques and live fashion shows as a way of connecting with customers. I wanted to learn why. At Chanel, we have our way of doing it, and it's not only because it's a crisis. I think that the show, the fashion show, is the beginning of the storytelling. We are engaging a lot of customers through these shows.


pexels-photo-2952204.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&h=650&w=940


We have thousands and thousands of people who are engaging with the brand through this new storytelling. It's too far, where fashion is available in the boutiques. That's a way to connect with the creative part, with Virginie , to understand the next step of the brand. Also, a way to create a famous dream through our collection, and the best way to communicate, to engage, with these fashion shows. The late Karl Lagerfeld's Chanel shows grew to a scale unseen before in fashion. Ambitious, innovative, and playful. From the 1950s through to today, the signature Boucle Jacket is ever-present and re-imagined for the moment. Chanel's shows, once reserved for industry insiders, are increasingly designed to engage customers following online. In 2020, a new creative director, Virginie Viard, continued to stage fashion shows, even if it was not possible to have a physical audience.


Chanel is also sticking to its guns when it comes to physical retail. You and I have talked in the past a lot about Chanel's position, which is, you know, we don't sell clothing or ready-to-wear or handbags on the internet. Did, at any moment during the pandemic, you regret that decision because other brands saw a massive spike in sales? No, because when we know customers and when she needed something special, we can organize that, but it's not through chanel.com or e-commerce, it's through the relationship, and it's working, you know? Perhaps if it was not working, we'll have asked the question ourself, is that right way of doing things? But we don't try to sell more handbags, we don't try to sell more Chanel. It's about this new experience that we try to offer to the customers, and we want them to see and touch. I know that, quite often, they know exactly what they want, but you know, what we noticed is that when they come to the boutique and think, I want that, they quite often go out with something else.


So, the fact, to be able to come in the boutique, to discover the collection, to see perhaps more than what you imagined is always good. So, Chanel is about your dream, and we like to keep the surprise. Do you think you might be missing out on some new customers? Maybe, but we have more and more customers. So, I understand the point, is that our customers are going everywhere. Past year, double digits in every single country. So, I think that what you mention is rare. It's a risk, obviously, but at the same time, we are seen more and more successful. Thank you, Bruno. Thank you. It was very nice to talk to you. Thanks. All right. So, it's not that Chanel is rejecting digital innovation. It's just choosing how and where to embrace it.


For another perspective, I head across town to le septième, Paris' 7th arrondissement. The global headquarters of Kering are not what you might expect, housed in a former hospital constructed beginning in 1692. So, we are at the global headquarters of Kering, which is the luxury group that owns a number of internationally renowned fashion brands, including Gucci, Saint Laurent, Balenciaga, Alexander McQueen, Bottega Veneta, and a number of other big luxury brands. François-Henri Pinault leads Kering, the world's second largest luxury group, which made more than $17 billion in annual sales before the pandemic.


The jewel in the Kering crown is Gucci, which generates more than 80% of operating income. Amid the global health crisis, revenues at Kering dropped 17.5% in 2020. 12 months later, customers in Asia and the US are driving a sharp recovery. During the first half of 2021, e-commerce revenue at Kering was up 78.5%. The behaviors luxury customers learned during the pandemic are sticking. I wanted to start with the last 16 months. It feels like the fashion world is kind of snapping back to its old ways of operating, you know, that there's a reawakening happening. Everyone's, you know, people are back from all over the world. Is this over? No, it's not. No, it's not, we need to be very cautious because a year ago, we thought it was over and it came back. So, we don't know, and no one knows. Yeah. I'm keen to understand who you see as the luxury customer now. How do you think about that customer? How do you describe that customer? What is structural in terms of the new world of luxury is that the share of the young generations in the total business is increasing, so there is a very strong and, I think, structural rebalancing between people from 40 years old and above and people from 40 years and below.


It used to be three quarters of the older generation and one quarter of the younger generation. It's more 50/50, and even 60/40, and I do really believe that they expect from brands, and particularly from luxury brands, very different things than the previous generations in terms of commitment, in terms of sense of purpose. Now, it's not just about beautiful product, it's much more than that. They want to make sure that the way those products are conceived, built, are respectful. How do you see that luxury customer having been impacted by the pandemic? You know, the Chinese customer, for example, if you go around the stores here in Paris, at this time of year, normally, the city would be packed with tourists.


It shows us something very important, is that this business of luxury is about human connection. And even though the crisis has shown that you need to be accessible because people want to continue to have the dialogue with you, even if it has to be done through websites, internet, at a distance, it doesn't mean that this is satisfactory. It's better than not being in touch with your customers, so that's why it's working, but we still need to find ways of reconnecting with people, even at a distance. Interestingly enough, last year, in '19, we were every agreement while doing e-commerce was around 6%, your direct e-commerce business, and then it doubled or it tripled in a year, but what appeared is what we call distant sales from stores, which is a sales associate, human people, Talking at a distance with customers, being a video, or it could be a chat.


And this is why it's not obvious, but for me, it showed us that, how important is, and will be, the human connection in this business. Even though you are very strong and we are very strong online in all the brands, we cannot leave it like this. How do we recreate this human bond, even online? Thank you, Mr. Pinault. Thank you. Kering has shown how technology can drive customer interactions and impressive sales growth, but by the time the tourists come back to Europe, they'll be looking for something different.


Chinese luxury consumers have become more sophisticated. More and more, they are into seeking exclusive products, limited editions, you know, things that they don't see on everybody. So, when they start to travel one day overseas, hopefully soon, we all hope, that I feel they expect to see different products, you know, when they go everywhere else. You know, why they go to the same brand shop, you know, in Paris, in Milan, in London, when they actually have everything here, that's something that probably is going to happen. Angelica, thank you so much for connecting with me all the way from Beijing. Yes, my pleasure. Yes, next time we chat, we'll do it face to face. For luxury, this is an era of reinvention. The pandemic may not be over, but it has already underscored to luxury executives the importance of creating human connections with their customers, and now they have more ways than ever to do so.
