The brief
The brand in a paragraph.
ASOS launched in London in 2000 as an online fashion retailer. Nick Robertson founded the company. They sell clothing, shoes, and accessories to young adults. Fast fashion was their first bet. The brand exploded by shipping globally before competitors caught up. ASOS became synonymous with trend-chasing speed. They stock thousands of own-label and third-party brands. Today they operate in dozens of countries. The company ranks seventh in Fashion & Footwear across 21,133 tracked brands. ASOS remains dominant in UK e-commerce for ages eighteen to thirty-five. Their scale and inventory depth define the category now.
