With more than a third of non-food products now sold online, we’re taking stock of best-practice approaches to the digital domain this month, with insight into one of the sector’s success stories, The Very Group (formerly Shop Direct), plus takeaways from Cylindo’s survey of Europe’s top 100 furniture retailers – where's the industry excelling (and falling down) when it comes to online merchandising?
We also reveal how Steinhoff UK Beds is overhauling its websites to support stockists, and offer advice on safeguarding against cyber crime.
If all this digital dialogue leaves you cold, there’s a look at this month’s BFM Fabric Show London, our monthly sales survey, analysis of the mixed media trend, and much more.
