Kelkay Twit Twoo to fly off the shelves for Mother’s Day


Kelkay has its Twit Twoo range of indoor owl water fountains in stores ready for Mother’s Day on Sunday 15 March.

Kelkay’s indoor water fountain Twit Twoo consists of six bright and cheerful Owls that can be placed anywhere in the home, making it the ideal Mother’s Day gift. The Twit Twoo collection comes in six colours and two striking designs of the ever popular Owl making an unusual and unique gift for the home.

Kelkay has produced a striking packaging stocking each design on a colourful inviting stand, helping retailers fully maximise the sales opportunities of Twit Twoo, which has a recommended retail price of £29.99.

Discussing the range, Antony Harker, managing directorat Kelkay said: “An indoor water fountain is a perfect gift at this time of year. Available in a range of colours, Twit Twoo will be flying off the shelves in the weeks and days leading up to Mother’s Day.”

Keepsake garden gifts emerged as a top trend at the Spring Fair 2014.* Kelkay is well placed to build on this trend in 2015.

Kelkay’s brand portfolio also includes Borderstone, Build Mate, easyfountain and Henri, providing retailers with a single source of supply for a wide range of garden products. These include aggregates, stone, water and garden features, paving, edging and walling, building materials, horticulture and winter products.

By promoting aggregates, paving and fountains with eye-catching point of sale, merchandising units and display stands, garden retailers have seen sales grow in these categories.
