Retail Sector

The retail sector is a competitive market comprising all businesses selling goods and services to consumers. This sector is continually evolving with the latest trends, meaning successful companies in the retail industry need to be focused, adaptable and competitive.

The financial and operational needs of retail businesses are intricate, demanding a nuanced understanding and specialised expertise when intervention is required. We work closely with our retail sector clients to fully understand the aims of their business and their current needs.

The key branches of the retail sector include:

  • Food and beverages,
  • Speciality retail (such as florists, opticians, or newsagents),
  • Work, home and lifestyle,
  • General retail (selling many lines of merchandise),
  • Wholesale and logistics.
