The world of retail and leisure has never seen such rapid change.
As the transition out of lockdown becomes a reality in Scotland we have been talking to retailers, operators, advisers and trade bodies on the front line – with video phones at the ready. Eat, Shop, Stay – Watch will share real world experience, insights and ideas from those who have lived through, and learned from, the lockdown experience.
In the fifth episode of Eat, Shop, Stay – Watch Ewan MacDonald-Russell, Head of Policy and External Affairs at the Scottish Retail Consortium reminds us of the pressure the Scottish retail industry was under before lockdown, how retailers had to show innovation at the peak of the pandemic and what the future of retail looks like as it deals with changing consumer demand.
