Across the UK and beyond, retailers and FMCG suppliers face unprecedented challenges; challenges which are changing the face of the market, and the fate of retail and consumer businesses, forever.

We recently held an event for our retail and consumer clients, with Justin King, CEO of Sainsbury's attending as a speaker. Justin spoke about issues that are close to our hearts - values, price, transparency and a customer-focused culture.

This marks the start of a series of events for us in the retail and consumer sector - we are keen to be as integrated as we can with our clients in dealing with the issues that they face - we want to know what concerns them, what drives them and how we can assist in providing solutions to their needs.
