Networking
We were recently contacted by a magazine in the retail industry about a feature focusing on hospital gift shops. Here we share a few of their questions. We would love your input and feedback and will attribute all quotes to the submitting Manager/Buyer. Join us in sharing! Answer one, two, three or all six!
- What type of inventory currently tends to perform best?
- Please name some of the latest product trends in a few different categories.
- Please suggest any best merchandising strategies that are effective.
- What new services/amenities have been added and proven successful in the past year?
- What are some of the overall retail successes in the past year or two?
- What are the biggest factors impacting sales and operations in this type of retail environment? (Considerations including Covid and pre-Covid)
Deadline to share: June 27th
