The release clarifies that the company’s turnover (20%) and website traffic (21%) also increased proportionally.

GSM devices (smartphones, tablets, smartwatches) showed moderate growth during the Back-to-School period – by 32%, laptops – by 21%, headphones – by 22%, printers – by 37%.
During the third quarter, Foxtrot opened three new stores. The renovations were carried out in the chain’s stores in Bila Tserkva (Hermes shopping center), Sambir and Odesa (City Center shopping center).
