European Retail Academy

We are an academic network, created in the first place to generate a B2B-dialogue amongst universities/colleges of applied science.

The European Retail Academy (ERA) has as its scope to act as a virtual platform and as an initiator of workshops/seminars/conferences to bring more transparency about retail-research and retail-education at universities or universities of applied sciences. Further on ERA acts as a catalyst for sponsors who would like to contribute to reach a high level of trade (retail/wholesale)-education

ERA pr

omotes the international transfer of know-how between business on the one side and universities at the other side. Among these are:

- survey about trade-cathedras and their academic degrees
- the exchange of research-results
- joint research
- the exchange of professors and students between universities as well as with business companies
- to assist the Bologna-process
- to promote benchmarking in retail education
- to work in interdisciplinary academic groups as a retail-competence-center
- to help to establish a cosmopolitan world
- the transparency about Trade Fairs and Trade Congresses
- supporting journalists specialized in retail/wholesale

05.12.2021 : Global Goals
Prof.Dr.Hallier demands fulfillment of Global Goals instead of outdated Geopolitics. "Geopolitical Thinking belongs to the last century when Colonialism dominated World Politics" the President of the European Retail Academy explained his philosophy. "Today we should act as a Global Commu5ity of Equals knowing that we should share respectfully the resources of the one planet on which we live all. We have to optimize together a world-model of economics, ecology and ethics".

As the best set of tools Hallier sees at the moment the UN Goals 2030. "Independantly from political or religious views of people from different countries this is a box of instruments which can be individually selected from to define own ways of fulfillment or which also globally can be used as a benchmark to compare the status quo scientifically : it reflects and respects global diversity - but aiming a global optimization; and last but not least it allows organizations of civil society, businesses, political bodies and science to participate with its input" Hallier defines the statement of the European Retail Academy.

25.10.2021 : Adriatic Fair

The Adriatic Fair in Budva/Montenegro is seen by Prof.Dr.Hallier not only as a business meeting but also as a geopolitical key of understanding : " It is as well a chance to interconnect the territories of the former Jugoslavia as also also the West-Balkan with the European Union" ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNOHiYI8bSE&ab_channel=JadranskisajamBudva.

Budva was also the starting point of the PanBalkanInitiative of Prof.Hallier and Prof.Zaric.

30.09.2021 : Innovation Catalyst
The success of the "Duesseldorfer Pallet" in 1985/86 was for the ISB (later transformed to the DHI Deutsches Handelsinstitut) the start for sustainable packaging and logistics competences. Testimonials for DHI-Innovations came from companies like Chep, Coca Cola, the Corrugated Industry, Kaufland-Group, Krings and Metro as well as from the German Federal Minister for the Environment Prof.Dr.Klaus Töpfer. Trade had been positioned by ISB/DHI initiatives to be seen by the public as a driver for innovation for the Total Supply Chain.

For Prof.Dr.Hallier as the managing director of ISB/DHI at that time the accumulation of innovative micro-economic processes to increase efficiency/productivity is finally resulting in the macro-economic growth of the Wealth of Nations. "It is not always a big thought breaking the routine - needed for the success of Applied Sciences and connected Businesses but the sustainable process of permanent innovation in the daily operations which makes the difference of companies : Retail is Detail !" Hallier summarizes the international success of the German discounters Aldi and Lidl.

20.09.2021 : Duesseldofer Pallet
Becoming managing director of the Institute for Self-Sevice ( ISB later DHI /EHI) in the beginning of 1985 B.Hallier's first innovation-project was the Duesseldorf Pallet : a standardized half-size Euro-Pallet. "The initiator in that logistics-team was Walter Vieth - one of the first ALDI-managers and totally fixed on quick turnover and low costs" Prof.Dr.Hallier remembers."Also for this technical development we used the push and pull-strategy for market introduction : in the beginning of 1986 the magazine Pack Report estimated already 120.000 of our pallets in circulation in Germany".

"The name derived from the location of our agreement with retailers about this tool of rationalization : a pub in Duesseldorf ! The key for the success was the idea + team for getting volume by integrating as many retailers as possible : Applied Sciences is a combination of Innovation and Motivation " Hallier summarized. About 5 years later the Chep-pool supported the renting of the ISB/EHI pallet in connection with the new German environmental focus : Chep claimed to save per year 200.000 tons of waste in the Total Supply Chain by this multi-trip pallet.

"Additionally he became a bridge-builder in Romania for applied sciences due to his MAGAZINE published digitally for the Romanian Distribution Committee" Hallier added.

28.08.2021 : Traditions & Visions
While according to Prof.Dr.B.Hallier at school and for the BA-degree mainly "learning" is essential - for MA and PhD degrees the "inspiration" is becoming the main factor for success. Human Intelligence differs to AI in the additing of "emotio" to the input of "ratio". In a review about the history of the European Retail Academy he focused two events where emotions of "tradition" influenced the success story of the ERA-researchers. "The academic life-style of behaviour plus architecture of the Templeton College impressed our study group at the invitation of Prof.Dr.Ross Davies (see also Hall of Fame 2008) in Oxford very much" Prof.Hallier remembers "The flair/ spirit loci united our international expert team and became a driver of our team-spirit."

"A similar thrill was created at the Annual Meeting in 2011 at the award-ceremony of the VSE Prague by the Gaudeamus Igitur of the student chorus, the fanfares and the robes of the participating professors " (see YouTube VSE Prague)."Suddenly it was not just a meeting as an activity at that day - but the feeling was created that the audience had been part of a long string in a historical process : which again became a source of inspiration/vision for the development of future tasks - Especially in the disruptions by Corona it becomes obvious how much such interpersonal feelings are missed as a stimulus for the present student-community being limited to digital events" Prof. Hallier concluded.
