Retail Trust X Kerv
Retail Trust X Kerv
We’re thrilled to share a glimpse into our incredible partnership with Retail Trust🎥✨
Together, we’ve made a seismic shift in technology to turbocharge our impact, helping more people than ever before 🚀
Retail Trust, the oldest industry-funded charity in the UK, champions the idea that happy, healthy people create thriving retail businesses and in just two years, we’ve transformed the wellbeing, culture, and training within the retail industry, helping to save hundreds of millions of pounds and reaching up to 700,000 individuals!
Our smooth services make workdays happier for Retail Trust colleagues, and their focus on Hope, Health, and Happiness aligns perfectly with Kerv’s values đź’ś
One of the key requirements Retail Trust had was that they wanted this to be a partnership and not a supplier-customer relationship, so the Retail Trust is also advising us on our own wellbeing initiatives, and together we’re working towards the hope, health, and happiness of UK retail 🤝
This partnership is more than just business; it’s about working together towards a brighter future for UK retail!
