Sweet promise for Christmas

 

Christmas garden centre sales are showing sweet promise but with many product lines still to arrive, the GTN Top 50 Christmas Bestsellers sales last week were down by 46% on the same week last year and down by 8% on week 39 in 2019.

 

Within the Top 50 Christmas products that were selling through, confectionery lines and advent calenders featured prominently.

  • Steenland Chocolate Coins 70g moved up 9 places to No 2.
  • PEZ Christmas Sweets Dispenser & 2 Refills re-entered at No 5.
  • Lindt Children's Advent Calender climbed 38 places up the GTN Chart to No 11.
