Oxford Street launches sustainability awareness campaign

On this episode of Talking Shop, we're joined by Dan Cate, CEO and Founder of SoldThrough. Dan is a heavyweight retail executive who has spent decades steering the merchandising and digital operations of America’s most iconic retail institutions, from Saks Fifth Avenue and Bloomingdale’s to Century 21 and Lord & Taylor. Today, through his platform SoldThrough, Dan helps international fashion brands cross the Atlantic and crack the notoriously brutal U.S. retail landscape. We break down his journey from the shop floor to the C-suite, the operational indicators that prove a brand is truly ready for international expansion, and how to navigate a fragmented American market without destroying your margins. We also discuss how to balance localised inventory with central efficiency, and the one non-negotiable metric that tells you a product has found genuine market fit.

Oxford Street has announced its new sustainability awareness campaign, Beyond Now 2022, during April, the month that the nation comes together to mark Earth Day.

In its second year, Beyond Now will showcase the “ever-evolving journey that some of the UK’s brands are on to create a brighter future for our high street”.

From Friday 22 April to Sunday 24, Oxford Street will launch its Beyond Now Weekender – a series of sustainability focussed experiences, events and workshops, as well as the launch of responsible products and menus.

Actress Amy Jackson has curated her own Oxford Street Beyond Now edit featuring 70 products across fashion, wellness and homeware. She has created a spring/summer fashion capsule collection from the responsible and conscious collections of over 20 Oxford Street brands.

Luciana Magliocco, Oxford Street associate director, said: “As we enter our second year of
Beyond Now and launch our Beyond Now Promise, we encourage everyone to take small steps together in order to make great change.

“With our brands, partners, ambassadors and shoppers, we stand together with a commitment to drive positive changes in the way we shop and socialise.”
