Retail leaders have access to more information than ever, but knowing what actually matters is a different challenge. In this episode of OFFBounds, Paula Macaggi sits down with David Katz, EVP & Chief Marketing Officer of Randa Apparel & Accessories, to explore how leaders can separate signal from noise and identify the shifts that could fundamentally change their businesses. Drawing from Randa’s unique position across manufacturing, wholesale, brands and retail, David looks beyond the obvious implications of major forces shaping the market today.
From GLP-1 adoption and America’s aging population to climate change, geopolitical instability and evolving consumer behavior, David reveals the secondary effects that businesses may be overlooking. He also shares how Randa uses scenario planning, behavioral economics and early indicators to challenge assumptions and prepare for changes before they fully appear in the data. At the heart of the conversation is a powerful idea: we don’t have a shortage of information, we have a shortage of interpretation.
