Room of Our Own – Retail Strategies for Success with Downtown Works and flora and henri

April 8, 2021

Retail was already undergoing dramatic change before Covid-19, but the pandemic has further disrupted our retail landscape and changed the way many retailers are doing business. This Room of Our Own featured three creative retail professionals with proven success in curating retail experiences that draw customers, keep them engaged and are charming places to visit. Midge McCauley and Kelly Kost of Downtown Works are at the forefront of the urban retail industry, drawing on their deep experience from working with developers and retailers across the nation to successfully transform downtown retail environments. Jane Hedreen is the owner of flora and henri, which has beautiful retail stores in Seattle WA and Larkspur CA that offer a breathtaking collection of unique, sought after and inspired creations for children, women, home and gifts. We had this provocative conversation about how to succeed in our ever-changing retail environment.
