The pandemic has greatly impacted the retail industry, forcing businesses to adapt and find new ways to survive. One of the key shifts that retailers have been implementing is transitioning from brick-and-mortar stores to online platforms.
Wilcon Depot, as one of the companies pioneering retail excellence in this new era, we understand the importance of staying ahead of the curve and continually finding ways to meet the customers’ changing needs and preferences. We this, we recognized the need to adapt and embrace digital transformation during those challenging times, as well as contribution we can provide to the Philippine’s retail industry.
Having said, we demonstrated this commitment to innovation and industry leadership by supporting the 29th National Retail Conference and Expo (NRCE) 2023: Retail Breakthrough.
The NRCE has been an integral part of the retail landscape for 29 years, consistently delivering valuable knowledge and facilitating networking opportunities among key players in the industry. It is a flagship program of the Philippine Retailer Association (PRA). This year’s theme, “Retail Breakthrough,” underscores the necessity for adaptation and transformation in the ever-evolving retail ecosystem.
As the SEVP-COO of Wilcon Depot and now the Chairwoman of the Philippine Retailer Association (PRA), seeing the difficulties facing the retail industry firsthand has motivated me to lead by example and spearhead initiatives promoting retail excellence. As for me, I can see a conference such this as an avenue for retailers, big and small alike, to be transformed as “competitors” to “collaborators,” fostering a relationships whose goal is to flourish and experience breakthrough in years to come. Moreover, I am are delighted to witness an occasion where the whole retail sector comes together, bringing the latest products and innovations to the table.
