We have moved from virgin markets where simply supplying products was enough to succeed, through rapidly evolving markets where brands learned how to become customer facing, to saturated markets where disrupting the traditional retail model is now the only way to survive and flourish. Selling has once again replaced Buying as the way to commercial success.
Our shopping experiences are rich, fuelled by the extraordinary variety of traditional retail businesses, ambitious new brands, technology driven suppliers, and mission led entrepreneurs with a passion to sell. The choice is endless. The competition is intense.
