SALES BUILDERS
Everybody in!
F
rom new and novel to the traditional, holiday décor is a
hot category for retailers. Read on to see what holiday
décor suppliers predict to be top sellers this Christmas.
L&GR: What are your best-selling Christmas
holiday product categories?
Neal Applefeld, president and CEO, Old World
Christmas: The pickle ornament is always one of our top
ornaments. Food ornaments, as well as pets, are also
very popular.
Maura Godat, creative team director, Studio M: So
many of our categories are popular around the holidays,
as we create coordinated collections that add holiday
cheer, charm and color to a gray winter garden. Flags
remain the favorite, as do our Art Poles in various sizes.
They all look great in a garden or decorating a front
porch. Other fan favorites are our mini poles and 6-inch
Art Pots - we think of them as dimensional greetings.
They make gift-giving fun, and are great for family,
friends or hostess gifts.
Beth Lorentz, marketing and product director,
Glenhaven Home & Holiday: Our best-selling holiday
categories are Christmas ornaments, faux botanicals, pine
and berries, as well as LED pre-lit Christmas trees, light
strings and outdoor décor.
Marjorie Reed, senior director, product development/
licensing, Roman: For Roman, lighted items continue to
be sought after - and the more animation, the better.
Currently, our Confetti Lites in lanterns, gazebos, houses and
many other casings are one of the best categories for us.
Glitterdome (water balls) are at the top of the list as well.
Both these brands have the magical wonder of Christmas.
