The report says: ‘Victoria Beckham Holdings Group’s total revenue fell 6% to £36.1m (2019 – £38.3m) due to the impact of the global pandemic.

“This team responded quickly to the damage caused by the epidemic and managed the money and expenses, resulting in a significant reduction in operating losses of 57%, which is due to the competencies in the business and the restructuring of the business model, making it sustainable in the long term.
