How to pitch retail journalists
Retail reporters cover store openings, e-commerce, consumer brands, supply chains and shopping trends. They want sales data, store numbers, executive interviews and consumer trend insight.
- Retail trade titles want hard numbers: like-for-like sales, store counts, basket size.
- Tie consumer stories to shopping moments such as Black Friday, back to school and holidays.
- Product news for shoppers belongs with lifestyle desks, not retail business reporters.
