The week started with the second edition of the Global Wholesale Partner Days on Nov. 26th., followed by the European Store Managers Conference and ending the week with the Vendor Summit on Nov. 28th/ 29th. It was the first time that suppliers where invited to such a big venue whereas the Store Managers Conference had not taken place for many years but was now successfully brought back to live.

Motto of the week: Delivering the Joy of Esprit

At all venues, the guests were given a company update by CEO Anders Kristiansen and further insights on brand & product, wholesale, retail as well as supply chain. Furthermore, presentations on sustainability and digitalization were integrated too.

As sustainability is at the core of Esprit’s strategy there were also sustainability panel talks organized highlighting the topic from different perspectives. During the Partner Days suppliers and partners were invited to discuss sustainability in the industry whereas suppliers and internal guests discussed innovations from a supplier point of view during the Vendor Summit.

All internal and external guests were surprised with an energetic and vibrant product fashion show featuring the upcoming styles for Fall & Winter 2020 making the joyful motto of the week most tangible.

Esprit had planned a special highlight for the guests of the European Store Managers Conference: An award show was initiated to appreciate the work from retail managers and store managers from around Europe.
