Harding+ Named Among the Top 10 Fastest-Growing Retailers

We have once again been recognised among the Top 10 Fastest-Growing Retailers, as revealed by Retail Week and Growth Index marking the second consecutive year our business has featured on the prestigious list.

This recognition reflects not only our strong financial performance, but also the dedication, creativity, and belief of our teams who continue to redefine what cruise retail can be.

The global retail industry is taking real notice of cruise retail, and rightly so. It’s one of the most dynamic and exciting sectors, where innovation, guest experience, and precision come together in a setting unlike any other.

At Harding+, we’ve embraced this challenge head-on. Over the past few years, we’ve transformed how we think and operate combining data-led guest insight, bold product curation, and digital innovation with a relentless focus on creating exceptional, personalised retail experiences at sea.

“Growth like this doesn’t happen by accident,” highlights our CEO Chris Matthews, CEO. “It’s the result of determination, teamwork, and a shared belief that cruise retail can stand shoulder to shoulder with the very best in the industry. Our people continue to prove that retail at sea isn’t just keeping pace – it’s leading the way.”

Our growth is built on partnership and trust with our cruise line collaborators, brand partners, and, above all, the thousands of guests who choose to shop with us every day.

We are proud of how far we’ve come, and even more excited about what’s next.
