About boohoo group plc

 

"Leading the fashion eCommerce market"

 

Founded in Manchester in 2006, boohoo is an inclusive and innovative global
brand targeting young, value-orientated customers, pushing boundaries to bring
its customers up-to-date and inspirational fashion, 24/7.

In 2017, the group extended its customer offering through the acquisitions of
the vibrant fashion brand PrettyLittleThing and free-thinking brand Nasty Gal.
In March 2019, the group acquired the MissPap brand, in August 2019 the Karen
Millen and Coast brands and in June 2020 the Warehouse and Oasis brands, all
complementary to the group's scalable, multi-brand platform. In January 2021,
the group acquired the intellectual property assets of Debenhams, with the
goal of transforming a leading UK fashion and beauty retailer into a digital
department store and marketplace through a new capital-light and low-risk
operating model. In February 2021, the group acquired the intellectual
property assets of UK brands Dorothy Perkins, Wallis and Burton. As at 31
August 2022, the boohoo group had 19 million active customers across all its
brands around the world.
