Despite brexit online furniture sales continue to grow. It’s not just furniture stores either. Online jewellery sales are surging and many retailers in general that focus on digital platforms are confident that their sales will continue to increase despite Brexit getting closer.This is in wake of the widespread reports that Brexit would force British shoppers into a strike of sorts.
