In Episode 6 of Season 2, we chat to Josh Briggs, now of Stadium Essentials but formerly Director of Retail at TD Gardens - one of the US's busiest sports venues.

Josh has woven a career in professional sports retail, finding his way back home to New England to head up the Retail Operation at the home of the Boston Celtics & Boston Bruins, TD Gardens.

In the second part of this episode we cover;

  • creating elevated retail experiences for the most exclusive courtside guests
  • operating Lucky's Chicken t-shirt shop  
  • introducing the chicken bucket plushies
  • going "all in"
  • investing in the RFID tech "vehicle" by partnering with EXO 
  • uplifting the consumer experience by halving service times and doubling revenues as a result
  • the wider efficiencies to the business of RFID behind the scenes too
  • the new gig with Stadium Essentials

... and so much more!
