Checked it out - Littlewoods

Having languished as a reactive catalogue shop for some years, they are rebranded and repositioned and I have checked it out.

With a recent spate of television advertising, Littlewoods Home Shopping have embraced the internet, making shopping far more simple and attaining a much wider reach. The days of wading through hundreds of pages of rubbish has nbeen replaced by a simple internet search. They do still sell through catalogues if that is preferred.

The old days of over priced catalogues full of over priced cheap tat, look way behind them.

Littlewoods Shop Direct Home Shopping Limited is the UK’s leading online and home shopping retailer, with annual sales of around £2 billion and five million customers. They sell all of the major brands, including Sony, Nike, Levi’s, Adidas, Phillips, Kodak, Dyson, Bosch, Amanda Wakeley, Morgan and Miss Sixty.

Having appeared from almost nowhere, they aim to double nline sales to £750 million in the next three years.

To support the expected growth of online retailing, Littlewoods Shop Direct Group has a highly valuable and efficient infrastructure that no other UK retailers can rival – sourcing, warehousing, single pick and pack distribution, home delivery to customers.

Over the past four years, they have transformed and modernised the entire business.

Having made an online purchase from them for a antony worral bbq, I was delighted with the prce, (securing a significant discount as a new customer) which made the purchase highly price competative with 1 years interest free credit on orders over £60.

The bbq arrived quickly and the whole process of shopping with them was simple and easy.

Ease of purchase: 4 star

Speed of delivery: 4 star

Price: 4 star (the interest free credit terms and discounts available offset the web page price, which can be higher than other stores)

Well worth a visit, you may be as pleasantly suprised as I was
