The May/June 2021 edition of Progressive Housewares is available to read now, packed with fresh content as retailers enjoy having their doors open.
Among the line-up is a focus on outdoor dining, given the current and ongoing trend for garden get-togethers, which offer an ideal opportunity for housewares product retailers. With most summer travel postponed there’s little option for families and friends but to open up their gardens to catch-up and celebrate occasions. This feature takes a look at the hot-sellers within the category with feedback on making the most of the opportunity.
From garden to garden centre as PH takes an in-depth look at Garsons, winner of the Best Garden Centre Retailer award at the Excellence In Housewares Awards 2020. As the business celebrates 150 years, PH was invited to to join in conversation with buyer Sarah Crees to understand just what makes it such a popular destination retailer.
Other product focuses in this issue includes a tools and gadgets update, whilst the on-the-go category also shows off its latest innovation.
