Best Buy’s European invasion will consist of between 100 and 200 stores launched over the next five years, the retailer revealed in a joint announcement with its partner The Carphone Warehouse today.

And it looks like the UK will be getting the bulk of the superstores – the first of which will open next summer. The US giant will then make its online and retail push into mainland Europe after the first wave of launches here.
