Retail Compass Summer edition 2020

Welcome to the Summer 2020 edition of Retail Compass – our guide to key upcoming legal and policy changes affecting Retail and our thoughts on the need-to-know issues.

We cover EC Consumer Law reform, international data transfers post Brexit, changes affecting the food & drink industry and much, much more.

As well as our horizon scanning pieces and hot topics, we have guest contributions from:

• Andrew Opie from the BRC on the thorny issue of Brexit
• Laura Saunter from leading trend forecasting company WGSN on consumer confidence and COVID-19
• Eric Ho, CEO of BumbleBee Wellbeing, on how to manage stress and anxiety when transitioning back into the work environment.

We continue to include key statistics and links to our legislation tracker and list all of the UK Government consultations and enquiries relevant to Retail. 

We hope you find this publication useful, and as always, please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any comments or queries.
