The past two years have proven to be a challenge for the retail industry – aspects of the retail sector have been turned upside down by lockdown restrictions, supply chain disruptions, shortage of materials, crime, technology and shifting customer mindset and values.

Retail businesses currently find themselves in a perfect storm that allows them to re-imagine and recalibrate how they will move forward during these uncertain times, keeping in mind that the world they once operated in has drastically changed.
