Here at Retail247 we often state that we’re different from the big, corporate consultancy companies. We thought we’d remind you why. In the following blogpost we’re going to outline our skill set across the business, client satisfaction, operational capabilities, our corporate structure and decision making as well as our unique, personable approach. All these elements set us apart from other consultancies within the technology sector and our client testimonials only re-enforce that statement.
Skill Set Across the Business
It’s a well known fact that our client facing team have a rich history in the retail industry. With previous employers ranging from Debenhams to Harvey Nichols, and jobs ranging from IT Director to the shop floor, we have a huge wealth of experience. When it comes to consultancy engagements, this depth of experience gives us the capability to bring the right skill to the project at the right time and in the unlikely event that we don’t have relevant in-house resource, we have an extensive network of associates to call upon.
“With Retail24’s diverse breadth of retail knowledge and having a strong understanding of business needs we have been able to collaboratively arrive at the most impactful solution.”Matthew Taylor, Project Manager at Crew Clothing
