Best Buy
Best Buy is a consumer electronics retailer with operations in the U.S., Mexico, and Canada. At its brick-and-mortar locations and online, the company sells a wide variety of items, including mobile phones, digital cameras, video games, and music, as well as home appliances like washing machines and refrigerators. Best Buy also provides repair services for computers and other devices at its stores through its Geek Squad brand. The retailer was one of the few to thrive during the pandemic, reporting a 144% increase in U.S. online sales and an 8.3% rise in total sales in 2020 as Americans updated their home offices for a new regimen of remote work.
