Taking face mask fashion to a new level
GTN Xtra Promotion

History & Heraldry have followed up their phenomenal selling Face Mask range with a new Snood Mask just in time for the Autumn months.  Double layered for added protection and made from breathable stretch and washable fabric, the Snoods ensure a perfect seal around the nose with the same curvature and nose pinch found in all H&H comfort face masks.

 

Coming in a choice of fashionable colours, the snood is printed on both sides to ensure it looks as stylish as a scarf as it does when it’s used as a protector.

 

Experience of selling Face Masks in some of the largest Garden Centres has shown that a table display can multiply sales fourfold.  The company has therefore decided to give mannequin heads and table hooks at no additional charge, to model the Snoods, as part of their opening package.

 

Sales Director Nevil Furber said: “Our experience from mask sales is that marketing protective masks as a fashion item is increasingly benefitting retailers, as their customers already have basic coverings to comply with the law”.

 

The new Snoods will launch late September and have a retail price point of £9.99.  To order simply email sales@historyheraldry.com , telephone 01709 730700 or contact your local H&H Agent.  Fax: 01709 731700   Web:  www.historyheraldry.com
