Unlocking Purpose and Growth for Fashion & Lifestyle Brands
ABOUT THE BUSINESS.
With over 30 years of global leadership in fashion, retail, and digital commerce working in the UK, USA, Italy, Vietnam, Hong Kong and Australia, Phill Read has established himself as a trusted and respected leader and advisor who has helped founders, owners, and senior executives refocus their brands and businesses to align with evolving consumer needs, improve operational performance & profitability, and deliver sustainable growth.
SUPERYOUTH was founded in 2010 to help businesses navigate the internal and external forces that shape success. Over the past 14 years, Phill has worked with many organisations and brands in Australia and internationally, unlocking new pathways for growth. During this time, he also built and successfully exited his own brand distribution business following several years of rapid expansion.
The term SUPERYOUTH embodies a mindset that embraces change while staying true to one’s core identity — whether as an individual, a team, a business, or a brand. It represents the ability to evolve and adapt without losing the passion and dynamism that keep a brand relevant and deeply connected to its audience
