Americas Direct-to-Consumer Growth

Positive trading in the Americas Direct-to-Consumer channel has been driven by full-price sales, particularly in the retail segment. This strong performance underscores the robust demand for Dr. Martens products in the region.

Variable Performance in EMEA

The EMEA Direct-to-Consumer business has shown more variability, with the UK market facing a challenging trading environment. Despite these hurdles, overall regional performance remains stable.

Strong APAC Expansion

Dr. Martens continues to experience significant growth in the APAC region, especially in South Korea where the well-established shoes category has performed exceptionally well.

Healthy Order Books

Looking ahead, the global Autumn/Winter order books are robust. The EMEA order book has increased year-on-year, while the Americas order book remains steady compared to the previous year, now supported by a broader product range.

Strategic Growth Initiatives

The company is focused on embedding its consumer-first Levers for Growth strategy, which aims to engage more consumers, increase product purchase occasions, optimize distribution channels, and simplify the operating model. Progress on these initiatives will be detailed in the first half results expected in November.
