2020年百强零售内幕人士报告.pdf

Welcome Welcome to the latest annual ‘Retail Insider Movers Shakers in Retail Top 100’ report, coming to you at a time when the industry is facing great pressures. So, more than ever, this is a period when we should be keenly highlighting the achievements of those individuals overcoming di�culties and successfully bringing digital into their respective businesses. Covid-19 and its widespread impact has undoubtedly accelerated the shift of sales from physical stores to online channels and brought about an even more pronounced focus of retailers on their digital transformation strategies. This year’s report continues with the objective of previous editions in seeking to �nd those individuals who are pushing these transformation strategies forward. They are setting the pace within the changing retail landscape. Covid-19 is but one more challenge they face and has been another factor that has helped determine those people who justify a place in this year’s report. Against this background there have been some major changes in this year’s list as those people working at the more established retailers slip even further down the table and are replaced by individuals who are arguably creating the business models that will de�ne the future. Hence the list is topped by the leaders of The Hut Group, Gymshark, Depop and Bloom Wild. The only traditional retailer in the top 20 this year is Next. To help Retail Insider create the Top 100 it has again relied on the skills of an experienced Advisory Panel who have been a vital ingredient to ensuring the report covers a su�ciently broad swathe of the industry and to also ensure the rigorous methodology we apply to its Glynn Davis | R production was again maintained this year. I would like to thank each of the Panel members for their important contribution. A very big thank-you also goes to K3 BTG for its much appreciated sponsorship of the Movers Shakers repo
