We’re welcoming Trouva to MADE. Trouva is a great strategic fit for us, as we continue to enhance our marketplace offer, and perfectly complements our design-led homewares proposition. This partnership aligns with our plans to grow as the leading digital native lifestyle brand at home, giving customers access to an expanded curated product range – with more choice and newness. We’re also excited about the opportunities Trouva’s sector-leading marketplace technology will bring. This tech will be brought on board to the existing platform, significantly enhancing functionality around dropship, carrier integration and inventory management. This will accelerate our tech development plans and enable us to reduce our guided CAPEX spend. Total cash flow on the combined acquisition consideration and CAPEX is now expected to be £13-18m for 2022, compared to previous guidance of £15-20m. You can find out more here 👇
Nicola Thompson, Chief Executive Officer "We are delighted to report another period of strong financial performance and solid operational progress, with revenue growing by 50% year on year and continued delivery against our key strategic pillars as set out at our IPO. MADE has an unrivalled understanding of its digital native customer base and this has enabled us to upgrade our proposition and significantly increase market share. We have a clear strategy, talented team and multiple levers to drive growth in the years ahead . I look forward to working with the very experienced Board and the team at MADE as we continue to listen to our customers’ needs and aspirations in order to help them curate the vision they have for their homes."
International Women's Day- Our Designers
Company Report 2022
International Women's Day
After a year of lockdown, working from home has become a big part of everyone’s lives. Our spaces need to be multifunctional now, especially when a dedicated office isn’t an option. Here at MADE? Same – but we're surrounded by interior design experts (as every Zoom call shows). So we asked MADE staffers how they’ve adapted to the highs and lows of WFH life. See their setups here:
During the last few months, we have been thinking (a lot) about what we can do to help medical workers in the fight against COVID-19. So when we heard that many NHS staff were unable to head home for a good nights sleep between shifts, we came up with a simple idea that we hope will make a difference.
