Co-Founder & CEO Hermann Haraldsson says: “Given the challenging circumstances, we are satisfied with the development in the third quarter. We continue to operate in a muted retail environment, where customers are very cost conscious. Additionally, campaign goods, which can aid us in attracting the customers, remains difficult to attain. Still, we continue to see an increase in active customers on each and every market that we operate in. In total, active customers on Boozt.com and Booztlet.com combined increased with 12% in the quarter to a total of 3.7 million customers. Now, it's crunch time as we embark on the most important part of the year. Our team is well-prepared for the season and our inventories are healthy and well-equipped for the busy period ahead.”
