Independent Stores round up - April – Talking Tables UK Trade

Independent Stores round up - April

Posted by on

This week we spoke to independent store Indulgence (have a look at their Coronation window display below) to catch up on how things are going over this busy period as we head into summer:

Q: What are you seeing as key trends this season?

A: We're seeing that eco-friendly products and packing are doing well and being sought out by customers. 

Q: How has the reaction been to the Coronation ranges?

A: It's gone really well so far. Especially the honeycomb crowns - we wish we'd ordered more of those! Our displays have had a lot of attention, which is great.

Q: What are you excited for over the next few months? 

A: Summer parties, summer products and sunshine, fingers crossed!

Q: Any new plans for the store?

A: Not at the moment! 

The Coronation is right around the corner and the local high street has never looked more British! The Coronation displays in windows and stores are truly getting us excited for the upcoming celebrations. We feel that no matter your thoughts on the Royals it's certainly a momentous occasion that doesn't come around often, so a great opportunity for people to get together and maybe even wave a flag!

We don't mean to be biased but our Independent stores may just take the top spot for displays with our Right Royal Spectacle range. Here are just a handful that have caught our eye this month: 

George's Whitstable

Indulgence Chocolates 

 

Ashtead Park Garden Centre

Box of Delights 

The Kitchen Range Cookshop

Country Kate

Country clutter

Jeremy's Home Store

Love One
