On this episode of Talking Shop, we're joined by Dan Cate, CEO and Founder of SoldThrough. Dan is a heavyweight retail executive who has spent decades steering the merchandising and digital operations of America’s most iconic retail institutions, from Saks Fifth Avenue and Bloomingdale’s to Century 21 and Lord & Taylor. Today, through his platform SoldThrough, Dan helps international fashion brands cross the Atlantic and crack the notoriously brutal U.S. retail landscape. We break down his journey from the shop floor to the C-suite, the operational indicators that prove a brand is truly ready for international expansion, and how to navigate a fragmented American market without destroying your margins. We also discuss how to balance localised inventory with central efficiency, and the one non-negotiable metric that tells you a product has found genuine market fit.

British sportswear brand Castore has announced it is set to expand its retail portfolio with a new store at Braehead Shopping Centre.

Set to open this Autumn, the 1,482 sq ft store will showcase Castore’s range of performance sportswear, and it said it will allow the brand to “connect with a broader audience in a vibrant, high-footfall environment.

Danny Grimshaw, head of Retail at Castore, added: “Our new Castore store at Braehead will provide us an opportunity to continue our successful reputation in the region, making us more accessible and helping us to enhance our shopping experience. The centre’s fantastic location will allow us to connect with an even broader audience, and we’re excited to continue offering our premium products in this new setting.”

Castore was founded in 2015 by brothers Tom and Phil Beahon. Castore has partnerships with sports teams such as Newcastle United, McLaren F1, and England Cricket.

Last year, the company saw its annual revenue more than double from £48.8m to £115m and operating profit jump from £8.1m to £16.6m.
