Co-Founder & CEO Hermann Haraldsson says: “While market conditions remains challenging going into 2024, I am encouraged by our performance in the first quarter of the year. In this environment, we managed to improve revenue in all our major markets. This was achieved despite limited access to campaign buys, which was a strong contributor to the first quarter last year, and also the timing of Easter having a negative impact. Our Nordic Department store KPIs remain strong - the average order value continues to increase on both Boozt.com and Booztlet.com, while around 51% of our customers now buy from more than one product category.”
