Munich, 24 May 2024 // Westwing, Europe's #1 in Beautiful Living e-commerce,
proudly announces its expansion into the Portuguese market, launched on May
22nd. With a revenue of EUR429 million in 2023, Westwing continues its growth
trajectory by entering its 12th European market. This marks the first new
market expansion since 2014, reflecting Westwing's strategic focus on
leveraging its successful business model across Europe. It is also the first
country to operate on Westwing's new mostly software-as-a-service based
technology platform.

"We aim to not just enter but become a part of Portuguese homes, inspiring
and exciting them throughout this journey," states Andreas Hoerning, Chief
Executive Officer at Westwing. "With our expansion to Portugal, we want to
strengthen our position to become Europe's leading premium one-stop
destination for Home & Living."

Portugal presents a significant opportunity for Westwing, with a growing
home and living market valued at approximately EUR 2.2 billion. Despite a
strong retail presence, only 25% of purchases are currently made online, a
figure expected to rise to 48% by 2028. This indicates a substantial
opportunity, responding to a Design Lovers savvy demand (local & expats),
driven by an increase in urban real estate developments.

Westwing is committed to listening to Portuguese customers and continually
enhancing the brand experience. The online offering will also include
selected local brands, enriching its appeal to the target audience with a
diverse portfolio of approximately 200 premium design brands.

By entering the Portuguese market, Westwing reaffirms its dedication to
Beautiful Living, aiming to inspire and excite homes across Europe with its
customer-centric approach and unparalleled design expertise.

Westwing's Annual General Meeting is scheduled for 19 June 2024.
