New Beginnings Sept.1, 2026

A New Chapter in Retail Support
Since 2019, Woodridge Retail Group has had the privilege of working alongside outstanding brands, retail suppliers, clients, and business partners.
We are deeply grateful for the trust placed in us and for the relationships we have built along the way.
Today, September 1, 2026, Woodridge is entering an important new chapter.
Through our joint venture with HRG, the Woodridge team is preparing to launch a powerful new technology platform designed specifically for retail suppliers. The new solution will provide deeper visibility into retail performance, help suppliers identify opportunities, make better-informed decisions, and protect profitability.
The official launch announcement is planned for November 1, 2026.
What This Means for Woodridge
As we prepare for this next phase, Woodridge Retail Group's current brokerage, product photography, consulting, and related services will conclude during a 60-day transition period.
Following the transition, the Woodridge team will be fully integrated into HRG, where we will continue supporting retail suppliers and helping build the next generation of supplier-focused solutions.
This is not simply the end of Woodridge. It is the evolution of what we started—bringing our retail experience, relationships, and commitment to suppliers into a larger platform that can create even greater impact.
Supporting Our Clients Through the Transition
During the transition period, we remain committed to our clients and partners. We will continue working to:
-
Complete active projects and agreed-upon deliverables wherever possible.
-
Communicate clearly about timelines, priorities, and next steps.
-
Help ensure an organized and well-coordinated transition.
Thank You
To every client, supplier, retailer, photographer, service provider, business partner, and friend who has been part of the Woodridge journey: thank you.
Your trust and partnership helped build Woodridge and ultimately helped create the opportunity that is now taking us forward with HRG.
We are proud of what we have accomplished together and excited about what comes next.
