ELLIATT

Design concept to the retail floor…. Our ELLIATT Product & Design team recently took a break from our creative and technical bubble to visit our valued retail partner, MYER for an insightful team merchandising and customer research session. As we celebrate our 8th year of retailing with Myer, we were reminded of the incredible privilege we have to partner with a retail giant rich in history and a strong commitment to Australian Brands. We are grateful to the dedicated Myer buying and merchandising teams for their continued support and partnership. Bringing a brand to life requires intricate planning and cohesive team effort, and I am incredibly fortunate to work with such dedicated professionals at Myer and the talent within my own product & sales teams. Here’s to many more years of success and collaboration! #Elliatt #Myer #RetailPartnership #Merchandising #FashionIndustry #teamwork

Last week, I had the pleasure of speaking at the 'Building Capabilities for Success' workshop organised by Global Victoria Women, which brought together a room of dedicated women in business who are committed to expanding internationally. I was honoured to be invited to share ELLIATT's experience of international growth, highlighting our wins and challenges in navigating global markets. I was energised by the motivation and commitment displayed by the Victorian women in attendance, who are all passionate about achieving business success and driving global growth. My takeaway from the day was reinforced by numerous conversations with attendees - that international markets respond favourably to doing business with Victorians and Australians, as we have also experienced at ELLIATT when launching our brand in new regions. I encourage the women I spoke with personally to continue pursuing their global ambitions and goals. Global Victoria is an invaluable resource for businesses seeking support in their international expansion journey. I would like to express my gratitude to Ema Lawrence for hosting the fireside chat and my fellow panellist, Kim Teo, a true champion for women in the tech industry. Thanks also to Colleen Callander and Shannah Kennedy from Human Elevation for their session on how to restore energy and keep a balanced happy life in check (which can feel like an impossible task as a business leader). It was a valuable day that I am grateful to have been a part of.
