We’re here because of you
At 6R Retail, we believe the only story that matters is yours: the retailer under pressure, the leader staring down stalled projects, the team stuck in quicksand.
We exist for the moments when you realise:
“We know we need to change this, but we we’re not sure how.”
“Our last big project went sideways, and I don’t want to repeat that.”
“We’re drowning in tech but still can’t get the right results.”
“My team is exhausted, confused, or quietly checked out.”
“If we don’t get this right, the cost isn’t just money; it’s lost momentum, lost trust, and lost time we’ll never get back.”
Trusted by
You know your business.
We know how to deliver projects.
Most consultancies act like they have all the answers. We know that’s rubbish. The real magic happens when your expertise and ours combine. You know your business inside out - its quirks, its people, its hidden strengths, and the history behind every decision. That’s your superpower.
We bring the frameworks, momentum, and hard-won lessons from 100's of real-world retail projects.
We’re not here to tell you how to do what you know best - we’re here to work alongside you, translating your knowledge into outcomes that work.
How we drive retail success together
You bring:
The context, culture, and what’s really at stake
The goals that matter (not just what’s on the project brief)
The on-the-ground insights only insiders can see
We bring:
The momentum framework that turns chaos into clarity
The discipline to keep things moving (no matter how messy)
The courage to call out what’s not working, and options to fix it
We don’t do “transformation” to you
We do what works, with you. That means listening first, challenging respectfully, and building solutions together, so the results are yours. “You know your business best. We know how to deliver projects that work. Together, we build momentum.”
Meet Leonie McCarthy
Leonie doesn't believe in retail change fairy tales.
She is a straight-talking retail project partner who’s seen, and solved, just about every kind of chaos the industry can throw at you.
With 100's of successful retail change projects under her belt, she’s known for cutting through the noise, calling out what’s not working, and bringing teams together to deliver results.
She’s not a guru, but a sleeves-rolled-up insider who believes the best outcomes come from honest conversations, relentless momentum, and a shared sense of purpose.
If you want someone who’ll challenge assumptions, ditch the buzzwords, and get your project moving, Leonie’s the one you want in your corner.
How to work with us
Not gurus. Just hard truths from 100's of real projects.
Select Your System(s)
We help you define exactly what your team needs - creating systems frameworks that guide evaluation and fit.
Implement Your System(s)
We partner with you to roll out systems and refine processes so implementation isn’t just a launch.
Master Your System(s)

Tangible success
When project teams break the cycle of stalled projects and build momentum, the results speak for themselves.
Our clients have smashed deadlines, turned chaos into clarity, and delivered measurable gains, sometimes in half the time thought possible. These aren’t just wins on paper; they’re real-world turnarounds that prove what happens when you bring a team together around clear purpose, get on with it and hold each other to account.

Words of praise
We work to build good relationships with our clients and the project teams we work with. It’s incredibly valuable to get feedback on what’s working (and what’s not).
We build that into our working process to continue to improve.
“We started work with 6r during a challenging period where to maintain the businesses revenues we needed to implement Ship from Store processes in a very short time frame. 6r oversaw the whole project and ensured that all stakeholders understood what needed to be done while meeting a deadline of 11 days“
“6R provided valuable assistance to Aje during their project’s discovery and documentation process. Leonie’s knowledge of the retail industry and ability to champion discipline and structure helped the team ask the right questions, create buy-in and understanding, and set the tone for the project’s success.”
“I wanted to share thanks and appreciation for all the planning, diligence, care and intelligence you bring to our team every day. You are a driving force in supporting our strategy and vision and we are all the richer for having you in our team. We are truely thankful for your relentless dedication to our people and projects.”
