WELCOME...
...to the first edition of Mishcon de Reya’s fashion & retail newsletter.
Now, I suppose this might raise three questions in your mind. Something like: Why a fashion and retail newsletter? Why now? Why Mishcon de Reya?
Well I’d like to answer those questions as a long time retailer, who has also spent a lot of time with Mishcon de Reya. The purpose of this newsletter is neither to bore you with law essays or teach you your business, but instead to bring to your attention commercial legal issues that we think may affect your business for good or bad. In short, to provide you with another eye on the threats and opportunities which may have an impact on your organisation.
Why now? The fashion and retail industry has never been through so much change so quickly. The internet is one major factor influencing customer retail patterns, but so is the rise of super retailers like Tesco and the changing face of our High Streets.
Supply chain, branding and turnover management are all under increased scrutiny. We think we can help ease some of the pressure by providing you with the legal headlines in a useful way.
Finally, why Mishcon de Reya? Our fashion and retail expertise is first-rate. More than that, the team here is renowned for commercial understanding and an innovative approach (both essential in retail).
We believe that we have a unique combination of skills across all commercial legal needs, from business immigration to anticounterfeiting, to help your business day by day.
I hope you find this useful. If you have any comments or queries, do contact any one of the team who will be glad to help.
