Shop Direct's e-commerce strategy aims to streamline the online shopping experience for users by adding more personalisation to sites, so that offers are targeted effectively, said e-commerce director Neal Preece.
"We also want to add Web 2.0 technology to enable customers to personalise their own content to the site such as photos and reviews, or even 'shop with a friend'," he said.
The retailer will launch nine brands including Littlewoods Direct, Great Universal and Empire using the new platform this year.
