His knowledge was critical to Build-A-Bear Workshop understanding the European retail landscape.”

Maxine Clark, Founder and Former CEO, Build-A-Bear Workshop, St Louis, USA

“I have known Chris for over twenty years. What I like about Chris is his ability to draw on his international client-side experience, his role in advising pan European retailers on their strategy and execution, informed by his deep understanding of the investor and developer community.”

Julia Calabrese, CEO, McArthurGlen, London, UK

“There are many people who talk and leave no prints, there are a few who teach things one will remember and there are even fewer who have the gift to inspire. Is it because of his past experiences in Retail real estate spent at world renown companies or because of his multicultural approach to human and Retail diversity, but Chris falls into this last category of people who drives your mind to new ways of thinking, enhancing innovation and nurturing positive approaches to an ever-changing environment.”

 Christian Dubois, International Partner, Head of Retail Services, Cushman & Wakefield, Paris, France
