Australia’s Leading Retail Podcast
The ‘Retail Wrap-Up’ podcast was born out of necessity - to meet the needs of the retail community during the 2020/2021 pandemic. The podcast became a space for retailers to speak of their successes, their challenges and their plans for the future - all whilst experiencing unprecedented times.
As we progressed further into season 1, and then 2, we found the recovery in those turbulent times became even more important to reflect and report upon.
Over the past 3 years we have spoken with c-suite executives from brands such as King Living, Funlab, Michael Hill, KeepCup, StockX, Ulta Beauty, Afterpay and many, many more successful retailers from across Australia, New Zealand and the US.
