Fashion retailer Zara is to launch its next tranche of websites as it expands its online offering across a further five countries.

Zara.com debuts in Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Monaco and Switzerland on March 3.

The Inditex-owned retailer began its push into online last year, launching its first websites, including a UK site, in September.

Since then it has rapidly rolled out online. The new launches will bring Zara’s number of country-specific websites up to 16.

It plans to open further sites in two of the world’s largest ecommerce markets, the US and Japan, later this year.
