Year-on-year sales for the four months to December 31 rose 5.4 per cent. December trading was also strong, with sales jumping 6 per cent like for like.
Kurt Geiger chief executive Neil Clifford said last year was a significant year for the group, following the Barclays Private Equity-led MBO of the shoe retailer. During the year, Kurt Geiger also made its first overseas inroads and Clifford said it 'plans to build on these successes in 2006'.
He added: 'We are accelerating our store roll-out programme in prime locations across the UK, creating new partnerships with new brands and new business partners, expanding into the fast-growing accessories market and pursuing further international expansion. We are extremely confident that 2006 will be one of significant growth.'
