This collaboration is not just about adding another name to the roster; it's about a shared vision that encompasses a multitude of aspects. Our journey together will be underpinned by four fundamental pillars: Global expansion, Digitalisation, Sustainable Growth, and Human-centricity. These pillars will serve as guiding stars as we chart new territories and venture into uncharted waters.My experience as a non-executive director of McNulty Performance, a senior business advisor to PwC at Strategy&, and my involvement with RETHINK Retail's Board of Advisors have only deepened my conviction in the power of strategic foresight. This belief, combined with my roles as CEO of Asia-JV Tesco/Tata and COO and Board Executive of Lidl UK/IE and Primark Group, has honed my skills and insights, making me well-equipped to steer The Bergner Group towards greater horizons.With over 28 years of traversing the intricate tapestry of global food and fashion retail industries, I am eager to contribute my knowledge to The Bergner Group's journey. Our collective aim is to refine and redefine everyday life, bearing the torch of the timeless mantra: "REFINING EVERYDAY LIFE. BE BERGNER."This collaboration is a testament to the possibilities that arise when expertise and vision converge. I invite you all to join us on this exciting adventure as we script a new chapter in the annals of retail excellence.For any inquiries or further information, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
