Intuit is testing QuickBooks Online in the United Kingdom and is looking for a way to get into the retail market there as part of its plan to grow its largely American business in other countries. Those were some of the remarks made by Matt Rhodes, Intuit's director of investor relations at a UBS Technology Conference in London this week.
The company had previously disclosed plans to enter markets in English-speaking countries. But the fact that Rhodes made a presentation at a conference in England shows that the company is moving forward quickly. Rhodes acknowledged that Sage has a stronghold in English retail. However, he said mobile and online applications would be the way Intuit moves into most countries.
