PRESS RELEASE
Tablet accessories are biggest sellers
Birmingham, 23 December 2013. The UK's leading mobile accessories retailer, Mobile Fun, has announced an unprecedented surge in international orders during the run up to Christmas 2013.
With over 37,992 orders placed by customers across all Mobile Fun websites between 1st and 19th December 2013, the largest improvement came from the growth in international orders, which were up 42.6% on the previous busiest period in December 2012.
The retailer is set to finish 2013 on a high with sales during September, October, November and December over £1.1 million per month.
Mobile Fun now serves 30+ countries through dedicated websites and six international offices.
Managing Director of Mobile Fun, Mohammed Hussain, commented: "Tablet accessories are in particularly high demand in the run up to Christmas, and across all our Mobile Fun websites, we have already experienced a significant surge in orders for cases and screen protectors in particular."
"As lower priced tablets appear on the market, our product range is also appealing to new customers. We're sure that the final days in the run up to Christmas will see orders multiply further with tablet and mobile accessories proving as popular as ever in many consumers' searches for the perfect stocking filler."
The company recently opened a new office in Birmingham. Based in Birmingham Science Park Aston, Mobile Fun's growing multi-lingual team focuses on online marketing and product and web translation, while providing international customer service. Since expanding to the Science Park in early November, the international team now provides support in multiple languages as international transactions account for almost 50% of all sales.
Additional warehouse space added in 2012 also ensures that the retailer meets continuing demand over the busy pre-Christmas period.
