John Lyttle, chief executive officer of Boohoo Group, said now it is “right to celebrate the significant contributions the company makes to the towns and communities where we operate.”<\/p>\n
“The investments we have planned will help us to continue our growth, increasing our customer base both at home and abroad, adding even more value as we do so. All of this has only been possible because of the amazing people who form our Boohoo family,” he added.<\/p>\n
Even before the pandemic, Boohoo had gone on an acquisition spree as traditional British high street players suffered from the rise of online pureplays like Asos and Boohoo. The group now operates more than 13 brands, including Boohoo, Boohoo Man, Pretty Little Thing, Nasty Gal and Misspap, as well as acquired British brands like Karen Millen, Coast, Oasis, Warehouse, Debenhams, Dorothy Perkins, Wallis and Burton.<\/p>\n
This report can also be seen as Boohoo’s attempt to shed its negative image following revelations that some of its suppliers in Leicester had been operating sweatshop conditions during COVID-19 lockdowns, with migrant workers earning as little as 3 pounds an hour, in some cases.<\/p>\n
In response to allegations, the group in March said it has culled its supplier list and is now working with 78 British companies, compared with the 500 manufacturers it had been partnered with until last year. The company also planned to stop sub-contracting jobs in order to have better visibility over its supply chain.<\/p>\n
