The Carphone Warehouse (UK)



The
Carphone Warehouse is Europe's leading independent retailer of mobile phones and
services, with over 2,400 stores in nine countries. Outlets outside the UK and
Ireland currently trade as Phone House. The group has expanded rapidly since the
early 2000s, developing telecom and broadband services in several of its major
markets. In the UK in particular it has become a significant rival to local
leader BT, and it also has an important presence in
Spain and France. Telecoms services
have become a key focus for future development. To strengthen its retail
operations, in 2008 the
company sold a 50% stake in its European retail network to US electronics giant
Best Buy. The partners plan to launch a chain of large consumer
electronics stores under the Best Buy Europe brand during 2009. Click here to find out
