Abstract:
Introduction

Verdict Research: UK Home Delivery & Fulfilment 2006 provides a thorough analysis of the home delivery market - products ordered online, by phone, in store and by catalogue and delivered to the customer's home or place or work. It includes full analysis of a survey of 2,000 consumers, exploring their motivations for using home delivery and their expectations of home delivery services.

Scope
  • A thorough analysis of the UK home delivery market - products ordered for direct delivery to consumers via phone, online, catalogues or from stores.
  • Comprehensive analysis of why shoppers use home delivery services, how satisfied they are with them and which service providers they use most.
  • Detailed sector analysis for books, clothing & footwear, DIY, electricals, food & grocery, furniture, health & beauty, homewares and music & video.
  • Overview and competitive assessment of leading fulfilment operators.
Highlights

Declining sales at mail order operators have overshadowed a booming online sector and caused a sharp decline in the growth rate of the home delivery market.

A sharp reduction in the home delivery market's growth reflects declining business by traditional mail order specialists. The downturn has been compounded by the sector's exposure to home related categories that have borne the brunt of weak consumer confidence.

For the first time, over half of all home delivery shoppers place their orders online. The Internet is now the preferred ordering medium in nine of the 10 retail sectors.

Reasons to Purchase
  • Quantify and assess the opportunities offered by the home delivery market.
  • Enhance your understanding of the demands of home delivery users to steer development of your home delivery service.
  • Identify ways of broadening your appeal to target shoppers beyond your traditional customer base.
