ARI is excited to announce the launch of ARI In Brief, a new podcast offering fresh insights into the world of travel retail.

Hosted by ARI’s Global Insights Manager, Deirdre Roache, the five-part series goes behind the scenes with industry leaders and pioneers who share their experiences, challenges, insights, and hopes for the future of the sector. In Brief is now live on all major podcast platforms, with a new episode released every Monday until 16th December 2024.

The debut series of In Brief kicks off with a thought-provoking conversation with Jonathan Chippindale, CEO and founder of Holition, who brings his expertise in retail innovation and customer experience to the table. Throughout the season, listeners will hear from a range of industry experts as the conversations explore the travel retail landscape from the angle of digital and innovation, from a brand perspective, from a media outlook and through an ARI lens, as the series culminates with an insightful wrap-up episode with ARI CEO Ray Hernan in December.

Our aim at ARI is to always push boundaries, elevate experiences, and, most importantly, bring joy to travellers across the globe.

In Brief not only opens a window into the heart of our business but also gives a platform to diverse voices from the industry, highlighting how we can collectively redefine the travel retail experience

Ray Hernan

ARI CEO and Guest on the final episode

Over the past few weeks, I’ve had the privilege of speaking with some extremely inspiring figures in the travel retail landscape – from brands and media to innovative thought leaders. We’ve gone beyond the surface to uncover the personal stories that drive them, and they have so generously shared their expertise and insights for listeners. I believe these are conversations that will resonate with anyone passionate about travel, retail and the customer.

After a debut season featuring external voices, In Brief will return for a second series in early 2025, this time spotlighting the incredible team at ARI who bring joy to travellers around the world every day. Future episodes will allow listeners to meet the people behind ARI and hear firsthand from the individuals who bring “Joy On Your Way” to life.
