Christmas is coming - don't fight it!
We see today the release of the latest M&S christmas advert which for us always signals the beginning of the season.
M&S have the decency to wait until November before releasing this unlike other retailers who seem intent on hitting the airways in August or September to bring forward the spend.
As with most retailers Christmas can be make or break the profits and i note with interest that M&S released figures this week only turning in £260 million pounds profit, last year it was £280 million pounds profit.
two things occur to me here, firstly for any company to make a profit of any sort in this global economic crisis should be celebrated, secondly the management at M&S are actively investing in many new projects and store refurbishments allowing many other companies to survive and in some cases thrive as a result.
Now Primark is flying away with record sales, however history tells us this is a good time for discount retailers and as soon as the green shoots begin to re emerge their sales will level or reduce. It also has to be said that aggression of companies like Primark leave very little space for ethical trading which is a short term view in anyones book!

Holiday Blog
AS the holiday season is now fully in the swing and we have returned from our Staycation in the UK this year its nice to see the London streets buzzing with the tourist trade and hopefully retail are selling through all the stock for the Autumn winter collections now out in the stores.
This business we call "POP" tends to take us a season out of kilter each time, here we are enjoying some good summer weather and all we are doing is looking at delivering displays for the peak trade of Christmas starting end of september running through to January!
We ensure we have stock levels available for all main line products for call off and continue building the designs for the bespoke manufactured displays.......it really is a balancing act of trade which is affected by the climate!
more ramblings to follow.......................

Sunny Monday
Good morning from Sunny Hertfordshire!
This week EML Express launch its very own "price promise" you can log onto our website with absolute confidence that whatever you are buying, if you find it cheaper within 10 days for the same item we will refund the difference
This is something which no other website retail display company offers, why can we do this........simple its because we manufacture our own products and control our own costs, others simply buy in brochure holders, dump bins and pick and Mix displays to re sell!
Keep an eye out its going to be a great journey as we strive to corner the market in retail display over the internet!
a big statement but thats how positive we are about this!

musings of a Thursday
It occurs to me this morning that with civil unrest and economic slow down being reported around the world that it is very easy to get caught up in negativity and the day to day things we have to do which we dont enjoy doing
we fail to focus on the things we enjoy and celebrate the successes we achieve on a day to day basis
Wednesday was a day of success for EML, we successfully completed a roll out of our Dump Bin known as probin into Halfords stores throughout the UK, this is big our products are being used and showcased in every one of halfords stores, the probin was chosen against a range of other products available on the market, some cheaper but not as good, some more expensive but the probin ticked every box that the client was looking for.
On top of this Staples ordered a tranche of display hooks, 50,000 in fact which is a great order and one that really helps our order book this month, display hooks, clip strips, leaflet holders are all core products for eml express and its great to know that our team are out there selling these items and solving big name retailers display problems.......thats what success is all about, sometimes the road can be bumpy but the end product is exactly what is required and is a positive experience, we must take time to celebrate this and the hard work the team put into getting there!
so thats todays ramblings based on positivity and celebration of the things we do well
