Trading Update

Shoe Zone is pleased to announce that since the publication of its interim results in May, the business has been trading well and has also seen strong margin improvements and cost savings, in particular as a result of rent reductions and good supply chain management, which are expected to continue into Q4 of the Company's financial year for the 52 weeks to 2 October 2022 ("FY 2022").

As a result, the Company now expects adjusted 1 profit before tax for FY 2022, to be not less than GBP8.5m.
