Festive cheer

This issue plays host to our second bumper feature on Christmas products. A profitable time for most retailers, it will hopefully be a different ball game from last year when stores were forced to close at the worst possible time. To that end, head to page 80 to get a glimpse of what to stock during the festive period!

We also take a look at toys and games, greeting cards and women’s jewellery and accessories, as well as a bumper new product showcase to whet our appetites for all the amazing British design coming to market.

Enjoy!
