Buying

Buying is responsible for building a range that gives customers the right mix of newness, choice and trusted favourites. The team tracks trends, reviews performance and works closely with suppliers and brand partners to identify the products and launches with the strongest potential. They negotiate terms, plan ranges and balance instinct with data to make confident commercial decisions.

The team forecasts sales, manages stock and tracks performance across products, brands and channels to make sure the right products are available at the right time. Working closely with Buying, they use data and insight to identify opportunities, react quickly and support the continued growth of the category.
