About the event host
Hi, I’m Ami Rabheru, an experienced former Retail Buyer turned Retail Business Consultant, passionate about product and obsessed with retail!
I am the founder of Retail Huddle, a consultancy for growing product businesses, where creativity meets retail strategy, and success is a collaborative journey.
I noticed over the years that most ‘small-business’ events aren't tailored to the intricacies and unique challenges of running a product-based business, and many leave without any real, tangible takeaways, or worse - the wrong type of advice.
It's time to change the game...it's tough growing and scaling a product business and that's exactly why I'm hosting an event that will serve only retail product-based businesses, so that you can connect with people in their own industry.
With 20 years + in the retail industry as a retail buyer and experience of growing and scaling my own product business, I now help established and emerging retail product businesses with strategic, actionable insights and transformative solutions to grow sales, stand out in a crowded marketplace, and build compelling retail brand and product growth strategies
The event is curated by me, with my trusted industry experts and clients who are brand founders, and have mastered growing and scaling a product business.
I will be sharing actionable strategies for growing and scaling product brands, mastering seasonal buying strategies and preparing for the Golden Quarter 2024.
You will also have exciting topics from my fellow experts, scroll below to see the line up so far!
What to expect
The day will be anchored by a strategy framework led by Ami, complete with a workbook to help you get clear on the key takeaways from the day for the next steps in your business journey.
CLARIFY
Get clear on your vision so that you can set clear, measurable goals for success.
IDENTIFY
What's driving sales in your business and getting clear about what you DON'T need.
SIMPLIFY
Streamline the complexities so that you can optimise key areas to grow and scale.
AMPLIFY
Strategies for distribution and brand growth to elevate your brand to new heights.

Then you can begin to simplify and move forward with what's driving sales and profit for your business, so that you can create a solid strategy to amplify your retail product business without losing your sanity and finally begin to strive and thrive and build the business of your dreams.
