What: First insights from John Lewis who had only 3 stores opened for Black Friday

Why it is important: A record online sales day with interesting insights from the top sellers


On the busiest Black Friday day, John Lewis reports a 35% increase on e-commerce on last year. Overall, this represents a volume increase of 65% compared to last year. Interestingly enough, when it comes to the top sellers by categories:

  • In electronics, John Lewis clearly attracted customers thanks to deal on otherwise non discounted products (Apple)
  • Fashion is still lagging behind: the top sellers are commodities (umbrellas, underwear)
  • Home and beauty reflect the homeworking trend and the impact of lockdown in the UK.
