Our entire team consists of entrepreneurs and retail experts who have cut their cloth working in brands and growing their own online businesses, rather than working in agencies. That gives us a different view of the world to most. One where we know your world as well as what it takes to grow quickly on Amazon.

• As well as the rapid online growth of the business, we worked extensively on the launch of the first Matalan Homestore concept bringing both Matalan Direct and Matalan Retail together in a new omnichannel store concept.
