👋 Hey, I'm Kris

Data analytics enables retailers to understand customer behaviour patterns, optimise inventory management, improve pricing strategies, and forecast demand more accurately. By analysing sales data alongside external factors like economic trends and consumer confidence, retailers can make proactive decisions rather than reactive ones, ultimately driving profitability and customer satisfaction.

UK retail continues to evolve rapidly with the growth of omnichannel shopping, changing consumer preferences, and economic pressures. While high streets face challenges, there are significant opportunities in experiential retail, sustainability-focused offerings, and seamless digital-physical integration. The sector remains resilient, with innovative retailers finding new ways to engage customers and drive growth.

Yes, I regularly speak at industry conferences, retail events, and corporate gatherings on topics including retail trends, data-driven decision making, consumer behaviour, and the future of high streets. I also provide consulting services for organisations looking to enhance their retail analytics capabilities or understand market dynamics. Get in touch to discuss your specific requirements.

With over 25 years in retail analytics, I combine continuous data monitoring with industry relationships and academic rigour. I work closely with retailers, technology providers, and economic analysts to understand emerging patterns before they become mainstream. This includes tracking global retail innovations, consumer technology adoption, and macroeconomic shifts that impact shopping behaviour.
