Providing an update on trading for the first 21 weeks of FY24, it reports customers are purchasing “proportionately” more own brand products, resulting in a 3% reduction in average order value year-over-year.

However, Victorian Plumbing states despite an unchanged market backdrop, the group has continued to make market share gains, with year over year order volume up 4%, more than offsetting the reduction in average order value.
