John Lewis reports biggest ever sales week

John Lewis reported that it has just seen its “biggest ever week for sales” – and the “stand-out success” came from its distribution teams, who, across Black Friday and the following Saturday and Sunday, processed +18% more parcels compared to last year. In a statement issued today (4 December), John Lewis added: “In a week which saw trade fuelled by Black Friday and our price matching of competitor events, sales were up 4.8% on last year, up 27.6% on 2 years and up 60.1% week-on-week. It was John Lewis’s biggest ever week for sales in our trading history, at £187.7m. Online sales on johnlewis.com were up 15.5% year-on-year.”

Dino Rocos, operations director at John Lewis, commented: “Black Friday marks the first of the three peaks of Christmas and there was huge anticipation for the day this year and high expectations to meet. I’m very proud of the fact that we delivered successfully for our customers, this is testament to work of our Partners both on Black Friday itself and in our forward-planning.

“Looking ahead, our teams in our shops and online operations are ready for another busy week as we go into the first full week of December.”
