We’re looking ahead eagerly to the ever-closer annual Internet Retailing Expo 2014 (IRX 2014) in today’s InternetRetailing newsletter, and have an interview with Dave Elston, head of ecommerce, Europe, at Clarks in today’s IRX preview slot.
You can also find out more about IRX 2014 in the IRX preview in the current issue of Internet Retailing magazine.
Today we also report on online and multichannel retailers including Asos, as it unveils higher sales but warns of lower profits, on Sainsbury’s, where online sales growth has slowed as it prepares for a new website, and on the Arcadia Group, as it opts for new supply chain technology.
Finally, we have interesting figures on online spending, with the latest IMRG figures that show a rise in online spending in February, and a forecast of spending in the year ahead.
