ShopTo.Net figures

Online retailer reports bumper market share.

 

UK indie retailer ShopTo.Net has recorded their single biggest weekly market share for the last twelve months.

According to the latest Chart Track figures ShopTo have shattered their previous total market share record as they continue to grow. Last week’s figures showed that the online retailer took huge shares in F1, Dead Rising 2 and Guitar Heroes Warriors of Rock.

ChartTrack showed the market down 15.6% for the same week vs. last year; however ShopTo recorded an incredible 183% increase vs. the same week last year.

Cumulative year to date is now running at +84% for ShopTo against the overall software market decrease vs. last year of -13.7%.

Igor Cipolletta, CEO of ShopTo.Net said: “We are delighted by our latest results which show our continued expansion, despite the economic climate. We have a fantastic team of people here at ShopTo who are determined to make us the number one online destination to buy video games. We have invested in new staff, state of the art warehouse technology and CRM tools that mean we can now offer unparalleled service, especially on pre-orders.”

In July ShopTo.Net announced record turnover for their last financial year, an increase of over 60% and a trebling of their market share. Today’s announcement proves that they are well on the way to also breaking this target.
