Watches2U founder plans to open physical store
Online watch retailer Watches2U’s founder and CEO Danny Toffel is planning the next chapter for his business.
25 years after launching the pre-eminent watch e-shop, Toffel is introducing what he calls ‘The Watches2U Hybrid Retail Model.’
His aim is to bring together e-commerce, online marketplaces, bricks and mortar stores, and traditional wholesaling under one connected business.
“Over the last few years we’ve invested heavily in technology, logistics and infrastructure to build what I believe is the next evolution of retail,” Toffel posted on LinkedIn.
“Over the coming months we’ll be opening a new high-footfall retail store, and I’m looking for the right brands to grow with us from the very beginning,” he continued.
“If you have a great physical consumer product with strong demand, sensible margins, and you’re looking for a long-term retail partner, I’d love to hear from you.
“Whether it’s a core range, a new launch, licensed products, seasonal lines or carefully managed clearance stock, I’m always interested in exploring opportunities,” he concluded.
