Sosander announces partnership with Sainsbury’s

On this episode of Talking Shop I’m joined by Alain Bejjani—former Group CEO of Middle East retail giant Majid Al Futtaim, and author of the definitive new book, NEXT: Leading Through the New Realities. Drawing on his childhood in war-torn Beirut, and his experience steering a $9.5bn dollar retail and lifestyle empire through a global pandemic, Alain brings an unmatched perspective on leadership under pressure. Today, we break down his crisis survival playbook for retailers operating in distress. We discuss why resilience must always outpace efficiency, the four assets a brand must protect at all costs, and how to turn macro-turmoil into a long-term direction that scales.

Sosandar has announced that it has entered into an agreement to sell a curated collection of its products through Sainsbury’s.

Through this wholesale agreement, a selected range will begin to be sold through Sainsbury’s during 2023, initially online only, with selected stores planned later this year as Sainsbury’s increases its collaborations with fashion brands.

The agreement with Sainsbury’s adds to existing online partnerships that Sosandar has with John Lewis, Marks and Spencer, Next, The Very Group and JD Williams.

Ali Hall and Julie Lavington, co-CEOs, said: “We are delighted to secure a new partnership with another renowned British retailer, Sainsbury’s, to sell our womenswear collections. This new relationship comes off the back off a record period of trading with our existing third parties and is testament to the strength of our brand and product range as it continues to resonate with customers.

“To be one of Sainsbury’s key fashion partners is an incredibly proud moment for us. In line with our objective to provide our large but underserved demographic with more opportunities to purchase our unique and diverse products, this elevates our strategy from pureplay to an omnichannel brand. We believe that being an omnichannel business enhances our brand equity, will accelerate growth in our market share and brand awareness, whilst also providing us with a wider breadth of quality potential partners internationally.”
