The Brand Hunch

From legacy to longevity: Scaling a heritage brand into new markets

Episode Summary

R.M.Williams is many things; handcrafted, hard-wearing, and quintessentially Australian. But how do you keep a 1932 icon relevant for a 2025 audience? In this episode, Lindsay sits down with Victoria Taylor, Head of Brand Marketing Communications at R.M.Williams, to unpack all things brand custodianship, why collaboration is her superpower, and what happens when boots built by 80 pairs of hands meet a world that wants 8-second reels. Victoria talks UK expansion plans, the shift from LVMH to Tattarang, and the power of slow fashion in a fast fashion world.
