John Lewis Partnership is making headway on its turnaround plan as the employee-owned business reported its profits had tripled in the last year to £126m. It's £12.8bn in sales may be in touching distance of the £13bn rival M&S reported in its most recent financial year – but the retail giant is still a long way off catching up to the £672m pre-tax profits its closest competitor reported. John Lewis executive director Peter Ruis has previously joked “it’s been a bit Blur v Oasis in terms of M&S and us” – so do the Partnership’s latest results set the stage for this rivalry to ramp up? https://lnkd.in/epGB4cXE #retailnews #fashion #beauty
