Talk of a recession, increasing inflation and a cost of living crisis might lead you to believe that retail was about to die off (again). In this episode of The Retail Tea Break podcast, I speak to an expert who has the inside story. Owen Clifford is Head of the Retail sector within Bank of Ireland, having previously held roles with PWC and Deloitte. His current aim is the continued development of Bank of Ireland’s retail growth strategy and is actively supporting leading retailers and stakeholders in the sector to grow and develop their business in a sustainable manner. This is a refreshingly honest look at the current state of retail and is full of hope and opportunity!
