On this episode of Talking Shop I am joined by Zipline CEO and co-founder Melissa Wong. We discuss how Melissa’s 10 years’ of frontline experience informed her approach to building a SaaS company, the recurring operational frustrations that most head offices still underestimate, and why she believes technology should be designed with the store associate as the primary user. We also explore current trends in store execution and how retailers can bridge the gap between corporate strategy and the shop floor.

Footwear brand Vans have signed a leased to takeover the site previously occupied by Miss Selfridge.

Located in Oxford Street, London, Arcadia will remain the landlords of the site. Miss Selfridge will be moving into the basement of Topshop next door.

In June, a CVA was approved for Arcadia Group which included the closure of 23 stores. Separate from the restructure, the retail company planned to close 25 Evans and Miss Selfridge stores, including the Oxford Street flagship.

Arcadia was advised by Savills, while Vans owner VF Axtell was advised by CBRE and the new store will be Vans’ biggest site.

It is expected that this will be the first of a number of new tenants occupying Arcadia sites.
