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.

Scottish sawmill Logie Timber has opened a new retail outlet – Logie Timber Supplies – for woodwork and outdoor living at Logie Steading near Forres. 

Joining other independent retailers, the shop stocks a wide selection of clothing, outdoor equipment, gadgets and gifts. 

Alongside professional-grade tools and workwear, Logie Timber Supplies offers a range of casual wear, outdoor kit and gifts suitable for all occasions. 

Brands on the shelves include Carhartt, Sigg, Haglöfs, Morakniv, Leatherman, Light My Fire and Opinel.

Mark Councill, founder of Logie Timber, said: “When people call or visit us at the sawmill, they often ask for clothing and equipment recommendations, as well as asking us about the different wood products we offer.

“Logie Timber Supplies is a natural progression from this, allowing us to show customers the gear we recommend. Many of the lines are those that the team uses every day in the sawmill – from Carhartt jackets to Leatherman knives and multitools.”

He added: “We’re really looking forward to sharing our passion for these products with visitors to the area.”

Logie Timber was founded in 2017 with a mission to focus on locally sourced wood. The team believes in sustainability and a circular economy, with every part of the wood utilised.
