Casual clothing retailer Fat Face said sales over the internet increased 27 per cent over the past year as it invested in better products.
Total sales at the company, which opened 10 stores in the year, increased 12 per cent to £179 million in the 12 months to June 1. The company said it plans to open stores in the US and confirmed February's announcement that Sir Stuart Rose would be instated as chairman on July 26.
Fat Face chief executive Anthony Thompson said the 210-store chain had benefited from 'continued investment in product, service and store environment'. It relocated six stores in the year and refitted nine.
'It's been a good year for Fat Face. We have seen record sales, improved earnings and created a firm foundation for continued growth,' he said. He said consumer sentiment appears to be 'more optimistic' than 12 months ago.
Profit, measured as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation, increased 35 per cent to £31.2 million.
