Internet Shopping Arena Stormed by Family Run Business

A Family Run, privately owned business is not a success story often associated with an internet gift retailer. However, Prezzybox.com have combined the traditions and qualities of a family run business with forward thinking business models to create a successful and friendly website that rivals the current top 4 gift and gadget internet retailers.

The company began in 2000 from an idea spawned by the Managing Director, Zak Edwards. Zak enlisted the help of his Dad, Mum and Girlfriend, who all began to work hard creating a gift site with brilliant and unusual present ideas and user features such as the 'Gift Wizard' to help choose the perfect present for a loved one.

In 2001 the site was officially launched and the family sat and waited with anticipation for their first order. From this day forward the company has grown from strength to strength.
However, with the growth of what is soon to become a multinational company, Prezzybox keeps its core customer service and family friendly values close to its heart.

For example, it is always possible to speak to a person in prezzybox's own customer service team as opposed to an outsourced call centre and new members of staff if not a family member are treated like one. This friendly and huggable atmosphere is passed onto the customer, which makes Prezzybox a very approachable company.

The financial projection for the company is looking even better. 2006 proved to be another successful year for Prezzybox with a year on year increase in turnover of 41% and a bursting Christmas with an increase of 62% in December. Therefore, look out for prezzybox over the next year as a company success story to follow and a fantastic choice for purchasing unusual and cutting edge gifts and gadgets.
