“myfind.com is a value focussed online business that is quite different to the existing Myer department store and myer.com.au offering. The site has been in development in conjunction with our Global Sourcing Offices in Shanghai and Hong Kong and our key logistics partner, Cargo Services.

“The site gives us the ability to test new merchandise and explore potential new product and range extensions and will give customers access to a dynamic range of competitively priced products that are not necessarily available in store or elsewhere online.”

Myer said iPad and iPhone application downloads continue to rise.
