Games Workshop has now confirmed that it will begin making trade sales in Europe and North America this week and will take online orders from May. The decision comes after the retailer implemented changes across its warehouse operations to enable social distancing due to the coronavirus pandemic.
“As stated previously, trading for the group in the nine months to the end of February was in line with expectations, However, since the outbreak of Covid-19 and the subsequent closure of our operations globally, our performance has been impacted. As we are now reopening our sales channels as discussed above, we estimate our profit before tax for the year ended May 31 2020 to be no less than £70 million.” – Games Workshop said in a statement.
