As an ardent proponent of #diversityandinclusion and upholding the ethos of #equalemployment #equalopportunity - this event was very close to my heart! We are striving towards a goal to have 20% women in our #Raymond #madetomeasure #stores in the next 2 years - this is not just because #women make up 50% of our #population or that the #influencer in #buying #decisions on #men’s #clothing are women or even that when you #employ a women you #empower the #household and #society at large BUT most importantly - it makes #business #sense as seen in my #top #performing #stores which are run by #women who are #store #managers or are part of the store teams delivering 25% growth YoY! So #kudos to Meena Sharma and her team in #raymond L&OD for #unnatti #initiative where we #upskill our #women #store #staff to reach greater heights! More power to you! Cheers!

🤔 What'cha think? Ocado Retail's 'Buy Women Built' aisle is a game-changer! It's not just about shopping; it's about empowering female entrepreneurs and fostering real change 🌟 There are over 1,000 products from 130 women-founded brands 💗, all in one place. It's like a treasure trove of innovation, each item telling a story of determination and creativity. 🔵 For me, it's a vote for a more inclusive business world and a spark for the next generation of female founders. Examples include Bold Beans (yum 😋, a personal fav) and Pip & Nut (another fav). As someone who works closely with brilliant women entrepreneurs, seeing initiatives like this makes my heart sing 💃. It's all about creating those meaningful connections through authentic brands - something I'm passionate about in my own work. And here's the strategist 🤓 side of me speaking - this isn't just a feel-good move. It's smart business 💪 . With over half of consumers saying they'd actively seek out female-founded brands if they were clearly marked, Ocado is tapping into a real desire for diversity in our shopping baskets. ❓So, what's your take on this? ❓How else can we support and uplift women in business? >>> I'd love to hear your thoughts and ideas in the comments!
