Shop! ANZ General Manager, Carla Bridge, noted that 2021 was one of the most difficult years on record for retail and retail marketers, however, the industry had continued to soldier on and step up to the challenges presented.

“2021 proved another difficult year for our industry, but this has not been a deterrent, with Australian retail marketers going above and beyond to deliver for their clients and brands with engaging displays and campaigns.

“It’s been really encouraging to see the way the industry has dug down to continue to produce some of the best work in their field worldwide, and I look forward to seeing what we’ll be able to produce in future years free of some of the burdens of the last 24 months,” Ms Bridge said.

Ms Bridge congratulated all winners of the 2021 Awards. “Last night’s results are a true testament to the strength and success of retail marketing in Australia and New Zealand and prove that the sector is a robust and indispensable element in the retail mix,” she said.
