Argos is a large British in-store and online retailer with 737 stores and around 340 million website visits a year.

About

It is estimated that some 96% of the UK population is within 10 miles of an Argos store, and today the company generates annual revenues in excess of £4 billion. Together with sister company Homebase, it is part of the Home Retail Group.

Argos owns various brands including well-known electronics names such as Alba and Bush.

The name ‘Argos’ stemmed from the founder Richard Tomkins having the idea for the business whilst on holiday in the Greek city of the same name. He had previously started the Green Shield Stamps catalogue, and adapted the idea to incorporate customers buying from a catalogue or in-store with cash rather than savings stamps.

The idea was a winner, and the company grew rapidly with stores opening in rapid succession after the original opened in Canterbury, Kent.

Along with a large-scale store re-branding, Argos has tried other initiatives such as HomeStore&More branded stores and Argos TV although both have been discontinued. The Argos credit card has continued so far.

The Argos catalogue is published twice a year, and is available free in-store. It is augmented periodically by mini brochures promoting special offers on selected lines and these are also available in store.
