Retail spending is lower than during the GFC. Retailers are going to the wall more than any other business and Retail NZ's latest survey shows 43% of businesses are unsure they'll survive another year. In hospo, a swathe of high-profile restaurants have shuttered and last year - for the first time in two decades - the number of cafes and restaurants was lower than the year before. We assembled some of the sectors' most brilliant brains to work out what went wrong, how we fix it and the prognosis for the future. They are fashion icon Kate Sylvester, hospitality legend Luke Dallow and designer Jessie Wong - a member of the Wellington Mayor's new business advisory group. On the agenda: skyrocketing rents, transport woes, how the Government can help, the power of big events and whether New Zealand should become a tipping economy.

On today's show we chat to Cathryn Wills, founder and creative director of luxury vegan bags and accessories brand SANS BEAST (‘sans' meaning ‘without' - a brand without animal).  After working in very impressive executive roles in Australian fashion retail for nearly 30 years, and for huge companies like JAG, The Country Road Group, Crumpler and MIMCO, Cathryn resigned from her final position in 2016 to take a new path.  The new path? Luxe handbags that are completely free of animal products - which she launched by the name of SANS BEAST in March of 2018.  With over a decade of her 30-year fashion career spent living and breathing the world of leather handbags, Cathryn progressively recognised the huge disconnect between her professional role and her ethical stance on animal welfare and the environment. Cathryn is an absolute force in the fashion industry, and has so much experience both in the workforce and in forging your own path - we already know you guys will get a lot out of this chat, whether you're looking to climb the ranks in your professional career or go out completely on your own.  – Cathryn is currently reading Animal Liberation Now by Peter Singer. She's tapping in and out of Netflix, and is spending some time listening to podcasts like The Business of Fashion, The Tim Ferriss Show, Huberman Lab and of course Smartless for a bit of a laugh.  – Find Cathryn on Instagram and LinkedIn.  Find SANS BEAST on their website sansbeast.com and on Instagram.  –  Wanting more?

Fashion companies are taking innovative steps in making meaningful changes to the outdated sourcing structure and putting environmental sustainability as top priority. From making algae-sequin dresses, dyeing clothes with bacteria to planting trackable pigments in cotton, an emerging tide of technological innovations offers the fashion industry a chance to clean up its woeful environmental record. (Phys.org ). On Retail Corner Podcast today you will hear from Coach's Advanced Sustainability Initiatives Consultant Liz Alessi educating us on sustainability in retail and touching on following points: How does circularity (i.e. the economic principle of sharing, repairing, refurbishing, recycling, remanufacturing and reusing as much as possible to minimise waste and the extraction & creation of virgin materials) starts to take shape at larger brands? How does regenrative farming works? Alternative leather materials e.g. Algae, Kelp etc. One emerging technology that will make impact in years to come. What do brands tend to miss when talking about the true cost of their products? How looking into the past will help inform how we start to think differently about sourcing. About Our Guest: Liz Alessi: A 20 year fashion veteran with extensive experience in materials and supply chain focusing on responsible sourcing, innovative materials and supply chain disruption.
