AlixPartners

American Express
The UK retail sector saw a rebound in spending at the end of 2009, and a recovery in 2010, with spending almost returning to pre-downturn levels.
Skillsmart Retail
Retail is the largest private sector employer in the UK, with 3 million employees, 286,680 outlets and producing a turnover of £315bn.
