Jena, Germany, 21-3-2013 — /europawire.eu/ — Intershop customer Unieuro is the winner of the prestigious Italian Retail Award 2012 for the best electronics web shop. The prize is presented annually, based on results from a customer survey. For the first time, this year’s award includes a separate web shop category.
