As the New Year nears, retail bosses tell Retail Week about their resolutions for 2017.

As ever, at Dunelm we will be optimistic about 2017.

If it is tough then customers will find us for value for money. If it is a good year, then we will benefit from more spending. Either way it is all about doing a great job for customers.

We have a busy year ahead as we have to get all the benefits out of buying Worldstores, Achica and Kiddicare.

And we had an ambitious plan anyway.

Unlike most retailers, we will be opening lots of new stores as well as growing our web business.

So we have to be very focused.

And we always resolve to have some fun along the way… honest.
