Today on the FreeThinking Podcast, we have Bill Grimsey, legendary retailer with 45 years experience - from butcher’s boy to CEO of Wickes and Iceland. In 2012 he wrote 'Sold Out: Who really killed the High Street’, and since then through his highly influential ' The Grimsey Reviews' he has been leading the debate on the future of the high street.
Bill talks about localism on steroids, practical steps to creating magnetic high streets, and his new review 'Against All Odds' on the importance of nurturing independent businesses which came out last week!
