50 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 9, ISSUE 12 pride, and dedication in a retail job can be difficult. Most people consider retail jobs a stop-gap measure, where people work as they look for better options elsewhere. Gorham’s is trying to change this narrative, as Mackay explains. “Gorhams is an opportunity company. We encourage employees to progress within the company by learning more about the business and looking at retail as more of a profession versus a part-time job.” “At a recent business summit, one of the main topics was how people never view retail jobs as a profession. Most view it as a part-time or odd job. However, at Gorham’s, we believe that, in the grand scheme of things, retail is a profession, and helping employees understand this distinction can go a long way towards infusing pride and a sense of purpose comparable GORHAM’ S L IMI TED We deliver custom solutions to fit the needs of each of our clients.
