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 2021, the
boohoo group had 19 million active customers across all its brands
