"The watch and jewelry trade has always worked closely with the craft of goldsmithing and silversmithing. Current developments in particular offer many opportunities. Trends such as sustainability, gender neutrality and many more offer new starting points for us retailers. Many challenges of the two industries are comparable, such as the decline in the number of apprentices, new working time models for employees, and others.

We have a strong core clientele and clearly defined catchment areas. Digital technologies have significantly expanded the reach of our trade and commerce. Creative ideas and expertise are helpful in thinking differently and successfully as a retailer. This was reason enough for us to implement the transformation workshop together with the creative industry and now to summarize its results in a well-prepared and inspiring way as suggestions for you."

I wish you many good moments of inspiration!
