As the founder of RX Group, a Trans-Tasman strategic retail consultancy based in Auckland, Juanita has shaped the go-to-market strategies of companies such as Woolworths, Placemakers, Life & Unichem Pharmacy, BedsRUs, BK, Farmlands, Animates among countless others.
In her time on “the other side of retail” as a C-Suite executive, Juanita has driven transformative strategies for major brands like Countdown, Woolworths, The Warehouse Group, Yum Brands (Pizza Hut, KFC), and Noel Leeming. Under her leadership many interesting things have happened in retail; onecard was launched, Mr Pencil was taken out and let’s just say there was “consolidation” in the pizza industry. She has seen and experienced, the good, the bad and the ugly.
Juanita’s extensive global networks and retail travels, combined with her broad C-suite experience, give her a unique perspective on how brands can deliver authentic customer experiences, even under the most demanding circumstances. Her practical strategies and enthusiasm for driving growth make her a compelling speaker and panellist.
