Earlier today, the Australian Retailers Association (ARA) held a lunch in Melbourne for senior retail executives, sponsored by Retail Directions and Tyro.

The forum was led by David White, National Retail Leader of Deloitte Australia who provided attendees with an exclusive preview of the trends and insights from Deloitte’s new Australian research powered by the Deloitte Retail Performance Index.

David explored historic performance trends of Australian retailers and the implications of these for successful retail strategies, drawing on the latest Australian and global retail trends.

Collectively, the group shared views on numerous critical topics retailers must navigate in today’s ever-evolving consumer and economic landscape.
