History
The original Littlewoods brand was a shopping catalogue and retail business headquartered in Liverpool, and was bought by the Barclay brothers in 2002.[1] The website launched in the 1990s and in 2005, the physical stores were sold, leaving Littlewoods as a pure play online retailer. In 2010 a mobile enabled version of the site was launched, upgrading to include video and images in 2011.[2] In the first quarter of 2013/14, mobile sales accounted for over a third of total online sales.[3]
