Better Retailing Podcast: Season 2, Episode 7
“You’ve really opened a can of worms here”
Welcome to Episode 7 of Series 2 of the Better Retailing podcast!
Natalie is unfortunately away this month, but don’t worry – Atul and Aman have more than enough chat to go around. Rather brilliantly, to make up for Natalie’s absence we’re joined by multiple-award winning retailer Julie Kaur.
In this episode the team has a very interesting debate about the proposed legislation on energy drinks, bringing lots of different thoughts to the table and looking at all the sides of the argument. It’s a really great chat that will resonate with all legitimate convenience store retailers.
Elsewhere, we hear Julie’s story and how she got where she is today – including some great details on her recent full-store refit and how she went about it, and what she’s shifting her focus to look at now.
Julie also tells us how she manages to find time to operate as a great community retailer as well as being a trustee of various charities, a parish councillor and a marathon runner. Honestly, it’s exhausting just to listen to!
Hopefully the stories in this episode resonate with retailers out there – please do share your own stories and feedback with us via any of the methods below.
