Event Review: World Retail Congress

The Retail Exchange podcast

Event Review: World Retail Congress 2023 - In this episode, we bring you more highlights from World Retail Congress 2023.

As the retail industry’s best and brightest gathered in Barcelona for the three-day event, we took to the stage to capture two live recordings.

Host Karl McKeever is joined by Deloitte chief global economist, Ira Kalish, and Matahari Department Store CFO, Niraj Jain. Together, we discuss the economic headwinds that the industry is facing in 2023, and how retailers can create the financial foundation to deliver resilience and growth in the months ahead.

Plus we are joined in conversation by Havaianas President EMEA, Guillaume Prou, to explore his company’s extraordinary brand journey and why investing in product innovation remains vital in the face of growing additional ‘distractions’ to the day job of retailing.
