A happy Christmas at Dixons Carphone


Sales at Dixons Carphone increased over the Christmas trading period as consumers loaded up on big-screen televisions and smart speakers; however, its mobile business suffered. In the 10 weeks to 4 January, like-


for-like revenue in the UK and Ireland electricals business grew by two per


cent, with particularly strong results in TVs, Smart Tech and Small Domestic Appliances. Online growth was up seven per cent, too, while the retail giant’s initiatives in multichannel saw UK&I online- in-store sales reach 140 per cent. Sales in the UK mobile business, however, fell by nine per cent like-for-like.

“The supersizing TV trend kept on giving as we sold 75 per cent more 65-inch-plus TVs,” commented Alex Baldock, Dixons Carphone Group Chief Executive. “We broke records on wearables like Fitbit and Apple Airpods, while gamers couldn’t get enough of the Nintendo Switch. Our new Gaming Battlegrounds showed


the exciting potential of more enticing, immersive store experiences and drove strong sales and share gains.” Mr Baldock also reported that Dyson Health & Beauty sales were up over 20 per cent, Shark Vacuum sales almost doubled and an impressive 8,000 smart speakers were sold each day. “We’ve had a good Peak in a weak UK market and we’re on track to deliver what we promised for this year.”
