About
Insider Trends
We are a retail trends consultancy that helps top retailers and brands find new inspiration and turn this into their most meaningful ideas and concepts.
What we do
Insider Trends is a leading retail consultancy that helps the world’s biggest retailers and brands spot what’s coming next.
We focus on two main areas:
- Trends and inspiration
- Ideation and concepts
Top retailers come to us for inspiration and insights into the latest trends. We then help them turn these initial sparks of inspiration into meaningful ideas and concepts to boost and transform their business.
For more than 12 years, we’ve been delivering meaningful, original, no-nonsense insights on the future of retail that you won’t find elsewhere – all backed by solid data.
We’ve advised C-level executives from many of the world’s biggest brands, delivering industry-leading retail safaris, workshops and ideation sessions, presentations and keynotes, and retail consultancy – all over the world.
Our clients choose us because we put them first at every step. We don’t believe in off-the-shelf or one-size-fits-all because we know there isn’t another retail business exactly like yours.
The company was founded by Cate Trotter, who has been named one of the world’s most influential people in retail.
