Since the pandemic, many businesses have gone under. But some are positively buoyant, despite the odds being stacked against them. Why is that? Rebuild is a vital guide to how we reset and build back better.

Retail and brand expert Mary Portas argues that over the past thirty

years the business of what we buy has been dominated by the biggest,

fastest and cheapest. But those values no longer resonate. We've come to

realize that more doesn't equal better. How we live, buy and

sell is changing. We are all ready to put people and planet before

profit. The post-pandemic era is all about care, respect and

understanding the implications of what we're doing. This 'Kindness

Economy' is a new value system where in order to thrive businesses must

understand the fundamental role they play in the fabric of our lives.

They need to add, not just grow, balancing commerce with social

progress. Because we don't just want to buy from brands - we want to buy into them.

Full of expert insight and invaluable advice, Rebuild

is about resetting the dial. It gives businesspeople pause for thought

about how to make money, as well as the practical tools to build back

post-pandemic. And it speaks to anyone who votes with the pound in their

pocket - all of us who, with social progress in mind, want to spend our

money differently and better.
