News: Watchfinder Placed In 2017 Fast Track 100
For the third consecutive year, Watchfinder finds itself among the finest businesses in the UK and places 88th in The Sunday Times Virgin Fast Track 100. Only awarded to firms boasting superlative growth figures, Watchfinder is proud to add this latest accolade to this year’s list of awards.
The list ranks Britain’s 100 private companies with the fastest growing sales over three years, with a number of featured companies going onto achieve astonishing exponential growth. Watchfinder will collect their award at the 21st annual Fast Track 100 conference and awards dinner, co-hosted by Richard Branson, on Wednesday 23rd May 2018.
Watchfinder was established in 2002 in to create a first-class online market for pre-owned watches. Born out of a fascination with the opportunities presented the internet rather than a burning desire to work in the pre-owned watch industry, it’s been suggested that this fresh, innovative perspective on the industry has been instrumental in the successes of the business to date.
One of only two watch related firms to feature in past 5 years and the only pre-owned watch retailer ever featured, Watchfinder has an annual turnover in excess of 120 million pounds and has sold over 450 million pounds to date.
Founder Stuart Hennell commented “This third award is a fantastic achievement for Watchfinder and further acknowledgement of not only our position among the fastest growing businesses in the UK, but also of the pre-owned watch market as an ever-expanding growth sector. Combined with our Profit Track 100 award in April this year and our 10,000 best-in-class reviews from TrustPilot, our third Fast Track 100 accolade perfectly rounds off a great year for Watchfinder.”
