While e-commerce sales in North America segment surged 113.4% year over year, the metric at the International segment rose 80% in the same period. The upside was driven by the company’s continued efforts to bolster its omni-channel capabilities. Also, the overall brick-and-mortar same-store sales were up 105.7% year over year.
Signet’s Inspiring Brilliance initiative focuses on expanding big banners, boosting service revenues, broadening the Accessible Luxury and Value segments as well as accelerating digital commerce among others. As part of its Inspiring Brilliance growth strategy, the company will leverage data-driven insights for targeting new and existing customers. It is working toward evolving its Customer First strategy into a consumer-inspired experience, which includes tailored merchandise assortments and expanded services, thereby offering more innovative and personalized experiences.
