Retail Update with BDO & CMS

Join us on 5th February for a Retail Trading Update with BDO and an analysis of the critical emerging plastics and sustainability issue from CMS.

UK retail yet again has been heavily impacted by uncertainty in 2018, driven by fast evolving shopping behaviours, falling disposable income and economic uncertainty from a looming exit from the EU. Join us as we examine the events of 2018 and explore how retailers can remain relevant and competitive in an extremely challenging retail environment.

Sophie Michael, National Head of Retail and Wholesale at BDO, will discuss topics including:

• Trends and performance in the retail sector in 2018
• 2018 Christmas trading
• Predictions for 2019 and a focus on the new consumer journey

CMS will then explore the emerging and pressing issue of plastics and sustainability in retail packaging and how retailers can prepare.
