Join me in a chat with Ravi as he shares us his journey from engineer in India to flourishing retailer in Launceston Tasmania.
Ravi’s newsagency at Prospect Marketplace near Launceston Tasmania looks nothing like a newsagency. This is a wonderful and inspiring business transformation that has locals loving shopping there.
It is a true treasure hunt retail experience, offering shoppers of all ages fun and inspiring engagement opportunities.
What Ravi has achieved in what was a traditional retail newsagency is an inspiration to other newsagents. He’s done it on a tight budget, using items bought at markets and elsewhere to bring character and warmth to his shop.
I love seeing retail transformations like this and are grateful for the opportunity to share.
I was in Ravi’s shop yesterday, September 30. It’s close to four months since I was last there. As Ravi and I discuss in the video he has made the changes on a tight budget.
The customers are loving what he has created, as I got to see for myself when in the shop.
This is an inspiring business.
Absolutely inspiring, well done Ravi.
You have set yourself a high bar for meeting customer expectations.
I agree with Mark, sell the display. Doing so will encourage constant change.
