About us/Progress & growth

The Group continues to progress the following, key elements of its strategy for growth:



Growing revenue from new channels
In addition to protecting revenues from its physical stores, the Group expects further growth to come from adapting to the new multi-channel environment. Here we are investing in our existing transactional websites, HMV.com and Waterstones.com, by integrating them into our stores and increasing the level of marketing support they receive.

Maximising growth in games
HMV UK & Ireland has significantly enhanced both the quality and quantity of space devoted to computer games and consoles, as new console launches, including the Xbox 360, PS3 and Nintendo Wii, continue to drive an upturn in the cyclical games market.

Bigger and better in books
Following HMV Group’s acquisition of Ottakar’s plc in July 2006, Ottakar’s stores throughout the UK were succesfully integrated into Waterstone’s, including the rebranding of all Ottakar's branches to Waterstone's prior to Christmas 2006. This is enabling the combined business to leverage increased scale and better serve customers
