Au Vodka named Brightpearl Lightning 50 Overall Winner
Retail operating system specialist Brightpearl has put together a list of the 50 fastest growing UK e-commerce brands of the Covid pandemic era, with Swansea-based luxury alcohol brand, Au Vodka, coming out on top.
The list, titled the Lightning 50, tracked growth across brands from 2019 - 2020.
Powerhoop took second spot and Jericho Coffee Traders third. The full Lightning 50 list can be found here.
As well as taking the title of Overall Winner, Au Vodka was also recognised as the fastest growing company within the Luxury Sector and Regional Winner for Wales.
“I entered the Lightning 50 on a bit of a whim, not expecting to win,” says Jordan Major, Head of e-Commerce at Au Vodka.
“Then the call came in to say we’d won not one but three titles, I was absolutely buzzing. I ran in to tell the rest of the team and they all started cheering - it was a real moment for us.”
“We’re always working hard towards our next launch or next goal, so we’ve barely come up for air in two years. Winning the Lightning 50 has given us the chance to step back for a brief moment and see that we’ve achieved something that’s pretty awesome.”
“As we are fully aware, the pandemic has seen a big shift to online shopping and that has introduced several operational challenges for retailers to overcome,” says Brightpearl’s Chief Revenue Officer, Nick Shaw.
“Many have risen to this and now the results are in, we can see some brands and whole sectors have seen exceptional growth and success, despite the difficult climate we have had.”
“It’s wonderful for us to be able to celebrate and recognise the hard work that has gone into this growth, and I’d like to congratulate everyone who made it into the Lightning 50 list.”
