In today’s InternetRetailing newsletter we have stories from Ocado, reporting its full-year results, House of Fraser, unveiling its new mobile website, and Atterley Road, reporting investment from luminaries including Sir Terry Leahy.
We also debate Facebook and retail on the social media giant’s 10th birthday, the growing interest from overseas shoppers in UK retailers as expressed through search, and stories of delivery investment and innovation from Hermes and My Parcel Delivery.
