“I help independent retailers build scalable systems, stronger leadership structures and sustainable profit — so they can confidently grow beyond one location.”

For over 25 years, I’ve worked inside retail businesses — not just advising from the outside, but leading teams, driving performance, managing cost pressures, and delivering growth.

 

I’ve seen what separates independent retailers who stay small from those who successfully scale.

 

It isn’t luck.

It isn’t marketing gimmicks.

It’s structure.

 

Most ambitious retailers reach a ceiling:

 

• Revenue grows, but profit tightens.

• The owner becomes the bottleneck.

• Expansion feels risky.

• Standards slip as the team grows.

​

That’s where I come in.

 

I specialise in helping independent, owner-led retail businesses build the commercial clarity, operational discipline and leadership structure required to scale sustainably.

 

Not quick wins.

Not generic advice.

Structured, accountable growth.

 

If you’re serious about scaling — whether that’s a second site, stronger margins, or stepping back from daily firefighting — we should talk.
