This might be a surprise to you, but slimes and putties have taken off in a big way.

They are all over social media channels like Instagram and YouTube at the moment, and it seems that kids of all ages – and big kids too – just can’t get enough of them at the moment.

With the days getting warmer and longer, the season of summer parties is well and truly upon us. Whatever’s in your social calendar this summer, Crosswear Trading has a great selection of bulk items to help your customers throw the best event they can.

As with all the big events that are coming up this summer, it’s important to capitalise on the commercial opportunities that are out there and boost spending at your store.

During the year, we see many causes for celebration. Whether it’s Christmas, a birthday, Easter, Valentine’s Day or any other important event, consumers are always finding reasons to throw a party. In recent times, we’ve seen an increase in interest in some new kinds of parties that occur during the Spring and Summer seasons.

Whilst Easter produce has been available in stores for a while now, there will still be a large audience who haven’t yet found the time to pick up some last-minute Easter novelties.

Many retailers’ shelves will have been emptied early on, leaving those last-minute shoppers with an uninspiring choice. However, you can hop in and offer them a great alternative by keeping your shelves full of exciting stock right up until the big day.
