Summertime is Showtime!

Thursday, June 23rd, 2011

June 2011 014In the Northern Hemisphere, summer solstice begins on June 21st.

Summer means longer days, warmer weather, the beach, fireflies at night, flip-flops, sunscreen, and for those of us in the gift industry it also brings “summer show season”!

Customers attending our summer shows can restock their shelves with best-selling everyday items, make sure they are fully geared up on Fall and Christmas product, check out our largest ever November introductions, and can also take advantage of great incentives on new and exciting Spring 2012 product.

New Shows, New Reps, New Products and More!

Thursday, June 9th, 2011

I can’t believe that the summer show season is about to begin!

Summer Shows

It seems as though we just finished up with the winter shows, but I guess the time in between show seasons flew by because we had so much going on over the past few months.

For example, Blossom Bucket opened a new corporate showroom in Lancaster, PA in February.  With the entire product line on display, many retailers have chosen to place their fall and holiday orders at the showroom to ensure that they receive their seasonal orders before the most popular pieces are sold out.

Blossom Bucket also welcomed a new rep group, Cathy & Co, Inc. to our sales team in March.  In addition to providing extensive road coverage with eighteen full time sales representatives, Cathy & Co, Inc. will also have Blossom Bucket on display in the Dallas Market Center (1030/1032, TM).

Blossom Bucket will be kicking off the summer show season at the Market Square show in Oaks, PA on June 12.  The product line looks fantastic and includes new cat & dog pieces, a new inspirational collection, new birthday pieces and so much more.

Be sure to visit www.BlossomBucket.com for a complete list of trade shows that we will be attending.

Welcome, Cathy & Co., Inc.!

Thursday, April 21st, 2011

In an effort to provide the best possible service to our customers, Blossom Bucket has hired Cathy & Co, Inc. to represent the company in the Southwest.

Led by gift industry veteran Cathy Scholin, this group of experienced sales professionals will be working with our customers in Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas and New Mexico.

Starting in June, the entire Blossom Bucket product line will be on display in the Cathy & Co, Inc. showroom in the Dallas Market Center (showroom # 1030-TM).  The reps from Cathy & Co, Inc. have been fully trained and are looking forward to meeting with their customers to share ideas about how to make the most out of all that Blossom Bucket has to offer.  Between the extensive road coverage from the sales team and the showroom presence in Dallas, our retailers in the Southwest now have many options to review the Blossom Bucket product line.
