It’s no secret I’m a big fan of Bird & Blend, so chatting with co-founder Mike Turner at Retail ROAR was a real treat. From a single market stall to 25+ shops across the UK, Mike and his co-founder Krisi have built something truly unique.
In this episode—a sneak peek from our Retail ROAR 2025 summit—Mike shares how Bird & Blend grew from iced tea samples and hand-packed blends into a beloved national brand, all while staying people-focused and rooted in community.
We cover:
-
What “experiential retail” actually looks like (and what it doesn’t)
-
How thinking omnichannel from day one set them up for growth
-
The joy of unexpected blends (think rhubarb and custard tea!)
-
Using crowdfunding, customer feedback, and team ideas to scale
-
Why real loyalty comes from inclusion—not discounts
Whether you’re planning your first shop, growing your brand, or simply after a dose of retail inspiration—this one’s worth a listen.
