Kam has over 29 years of property experience. He is regarded as one of the UK’s most influential and most respected property investors and developers because of how active he is in the UK Property market. 

But it wasn't always like that. He grew up in one of the poorest areas in East London, and his circumstances motivated him to escape from life that many people were stuck in.

Fast forward to today and Kam has implemented and still does implement a variety of property investing strategies successfully, such as: buy to lets, HMOs, Serviced Accommodation, Permitted Developments, New Builds, and Commercial Conversions, which means he has built up a significant multimillion-pound property portfolio.

He now uses his knowledge, experience and contacts to help other investors and developers (both new and experienced) to take their property investing to the next level.

&lt;p&gt;I'm Emily, Retail Supply Chain Consultant and owner of The Retailer Clinic. I help small retailers to optimise their supply chains, focusing on the areas of procurement, production, inventory management, forecasting, cash flow and strategy.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I have over 10 years experience in retail having worked in head offices in buying, sales and production roles and on the shop floor in sales advisor and account management positions.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Working for small retailers opened my eyes to the challenges small retailers face when it comes to supply chain. Forecasting and inventory management software is eye-wateringly expensive, production planning is more complex due to smaller order quantities, and deciding on a procurement strategy can be difficult without buying power.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I went in search of solutions to these problems and spent the next few years studying supply chain analytics, fundamentals, dynamics and design. Armed with 10 years of experience navigating retail supply chains and a stack of models and knowledge, I am ready to help you optimise your supply chain!&lt;/p&gt;
