About the Community
The Small Retailer Network, launched in February 2022, has quickly become the UAE’s leading membership community dedicated exclusively to independent product business owners. Born out of a vision to provide specialised retail expertise and meaningful community connections, the Small Retailer Network is transforming the way small retailers grow, learn, and succeed in a competitive market. Founded by retail veteran Victoria Myers, who brings over two decades of experience in the UK retail sector, the Small Retailer Network was created to address the unique challenges faced by independent product businesses, from inconsistent sales and lack of industry knowledge to isolation and overwhelm. What began as informal coffee meetups has grown into a structured membership network offering weekly online events, monthly in-person gatherings in Dubai, and a comprehensive learning archive of masterclasses and workshops.
