About Us

Trusted. Unbiased.

Unfiltered.

Founded by author, speaker, and retail consultant, Robin Lewis, The Robin Report explores the why, what’s next, and the ‘what were they thinking’ of retail and consumer products. Our team of strategists, subject matter experts, writers, and editors produce insights that help retail leaders see around corners. We highlight innovative thinking and ask the tough questions to guide those organizations struggling to find answers. We demand more from the industry we love, and our unbiased, no-punches-pulled analysis is intended to play a role in moving retail forward.
