Launch of French website boosts mobile online retailer's presence in Western Europe
The website, www.mobilefun.fr, which launched in July, is managed from Mobile Fun's French offices in Paris and is already beating its initial sales targets, with more than 2,500 orders placed on www.mobilefun.fr in the first two months of trading.
France is the third European country that now has a dedicated Mobile Fun presence; the German website started trading in 2008 and is one of Mobile Fun's fastest growing websites.
MobileFun.fr will follow the successful format of the UK website which currently handles over 33,000 orders per month. "Market research on phone subscribers, users of ecommerce and broadband penetration, combined with a large number of French customers using our UK website, has proven that there is a strong demand for our range of mobile accessories in France," explains Mo Hussain, Managing Director of Mobile Fun.
Julien Guiguet, Head of Mobile Fun France commented: "Thanks to the experience from Mobile Fun in the UK and in Germany, we are now bringing a wide range of new mobile products to the French market. We have already received lots of interest from French customers about many of our products. Our most popular sellers so far are the Support Voiture Dash Genie, the FlexiShield mobile phone cases and the Pack Voiture HTC Desire.
The 60 million French mobile phone owners represent a large market for Mobile Fun. After this strong early demand, we are confident that MobileFun.fr will rapidly gain market share in the French mobile accessories retail sector."
Mobile Fun France will offer the same wide range of stock as the other Mobile Fun sites; comprising 7,000 globally-sourced mobile accessories for mobile phones and other electronic devices including MP3 players, laptops, GPS and games consoles.
