Records broken for the busiest week of the year!
|
GTN Bestsellers can report that the record for the busiest week of the year has been broken. Last week saw total sales volumes 7% higher than the previous record set in 2013.
And with two more weekends to go until the Christmas break many centres are now hoping they ordered enough product last January and February to make the most of the opportunity to end the year on a real high point.
Illuminated products, both in Christmas displays and garden lighting, continue to be a big growth area with LED lights selling really fast as trees go up and customers light up their rooms and gardens.
Not surprisingly our team of experts out visiting the 112 nominated centres in GTN’s The Greatest Christmas Awards are meeting very happy teams full of the joys of the season and starting to plan for next year too!
GTN Bestsellers Top 50 sales volumes compared to the same week last year... Garden Products - down 12% Christmas Products - up 1% Growing Media - up 17% All Items Index - up 6%
