ScS has said that its full year performance will be in line with its expectations. This comes after the furniture retailer increased its like-for-like order intake by 4.2% in the 52 weeks to July 27th.
The company originally reported that like-for-like order intake growth was 2.9% in the 33 weeks to March 16th, meaning that its full year performance reflects a much stronger growth in the last 19 weeks.
David Knight, chief executive of ScS, added: “I am delighted to announce that the group has traded in line with our expectations for the year, an encouraging result given the challenging retail environment. We will continue to target profitable growth by providing an excellent customer experience, with outstanding value, quality and choice for our customers.”
