Gift Focus inc Attire Accessories - September/October 2020

BOLTZE has been known as a reliable importer for home accessories for more than 50 years. The German family business has 260 staff members and numerous suppliers from around the world, and is run by its second generation manager Adrian Boltze. Company services include a wide range of products, best-sellers, high-margin products and a straight- forward ordering process. All of these services are intended to enable retailers to focus on what really matters: their own customers. The most important part is to learn from the customers and to keep improving the services, or as the manager puts it, “We want to help our trading partners grow. That is why we always like to give a little bit extra – commitment, ideas, devotion. For love of what we do. For the love of the joy that you bring to your customers.” T: +49 40 328079 100 E: export@boltze.de www.boltze.com Dating back to the 19 th century, Johann Georg Niederegger discovered a delectable delicacy, initially from the Orient. He instantly fell in love with the flavour and invented his own marzipan, sourcing the finest almonds and sugars from across the globe, to create a delicious curative paste, famously known today as Niederegger . Since opening the first store in the German town of Lubeck in 1806, the Niederegger brand grew thanks to its excellent quality and taste, and is now a popular household name in the UK (not just for Christmas!) The recipe was simple; use as many almonds as possible and as little sugar as necessary. This moto was passed on through generation to generation, allowing Niederegger to have grown into the strong and luxury brand that it stands today. The festive range for 2020 includes the brand-new Nutcracker advent calendar with assorted mini loaves, marzipan Santa Claus coated in chocolate, marzipan stollen, a large illustrative Carousel advent calendar, truffles and pralines.
