The IMRG Capgemini e-Retail Sales Index showed Britons spent over 4.8 billion pounds online in July, the equivalent of 79 pounds for every person in the UK.
Mike Petevinos, Head of Consulting for Retail at Capgemini UK, comments on this trend:
“Gloomy market conditions have not dampened consumers’ appetite for shopping online. Online sales continue to show strong growth, particularly when compared to the tough trading conditions on the high street.”
Mike has spent the last 9 years advising clients on their most significant strategic questions and supporting them in launching and delivering enterprise-wide programmes to help them fulfil their ambitions. A specialist in the Retail and Consumer Products industries, Mike is now responsible for this capability within Capgemini UK and is a published author on how Integrated Multi-Channel Retailing is shaping the industry.
