Originally published in the November 2010 issue of Gifts & Decorative Accessories Whether they are located in large cities or small towns, this year’s group of gifted retailers have a lot in common, yet they are very diverse. This dynamic group, drawn from across the country and ranging from gift and home stores to hospital shops to an online-only retailer, relies on creative merchandising, good customer service and a variety of special events to stand out and help drive sales. Gifts & Decorative Accessories' exclusive report, 25 Gifted Retailers, presents snapshots of independent gift and decorative accessory retailers that are using innovating approaches to marketing and merchandising and are making a difference in their communities. This list is by no means comprehensive, nor is it a ranking. Many more than the 25 retailers listed here are strong retailers within their communities. Because sales volumes are of interest, however, Gifts & Decorative Accessories does provide sales estimates for all companies. All sales figures and ranges are Gifts & Decorative Accessories market research estimates and are for total 2009 store sales, which may include revenues from the sale of products other than gifts and accessories. All sales figures and store counts are for the calendar year 2009. *7 pages* Please Note: This report is available for immediate electronic download in PDF format.
