Why attend this event?

Issues such as fair trade, healthy living, obesity, climate change and equal opportunities are dramatically shaping consumer spending habits and how retailers perform.  Smart retailers know that if they get their strategy right, a responsible retailer is a more profitable retailer but achieving this goal is a hugely complex task.    

Further to a period of in depth research with target delegates, this event focuses on how UK retail executives can develop corporate social responsibility (CSR) strategies that will boost profits, reduce costs, increase market share and enhance their retail brands. 

This interactive summit has been designed to allow around 400 UK retail executives (and solution providers) to network and discuss best practices of CSR. 

Find out how to:

• Drive profits and brand value through effective responsible retailing strategies
• Align your corporate responsibility strategy with the latest stakeholder expectations
• Understand which areas of CSR will allow you to make a real difference
• Enhance your brand value through effective ethical supply chain strategies
