Wickes, a leading home improvement retailer, has been shortlisted for the prestigious “Ecommerce Game Changer” award at the 2024 Retail Gazette Awards. This nomination recognises Wickes’ significant achievements in transforming its digital customer experience and driving innovation in the retail sector, accomplished through its strategic partnership with Good Growth.

Wickes has consistently demonstrated a commitment to innovation, particularly in enhancing its digital capabilities to create a seamless and integrated multi-channel shopping experience. Central to this transformation has been the optimisation of their Click & Collect service, which has resulted in an increase in sales and record levels of customer satisfaction.
