The scale and efficiency of our product sourcing and distribution operations enable us to control our costs and ensure high levels of stock availability. It also helps to deliver the best performance.
Whatever happens in the short term, our focus is on continuing to increase our product portfolio and extending our leadership in our existing markets. Our purchasing scale, supply chain and shared infrastructure will help to support margins and manage cost pressures through the cycle. And we’ll keep investing for growth to emerge from any economic slowdown in an even stronger position.
