This issue we have a show focus, promoting what’s to come at must-visit fashion accessory events Pure London, Moda and Harrogate Fashion Week. And as most of you will know, July and August are the prime months to get your order books ready for the lucrative festive season. And given that the Christmas period is often one that keeps companies afloat for the slower months of January and February, in my expert blog I look at how retailers can further capitalise on the season. From strategising to make use of the pre-Christmas discounting periods such as Cyber Week, to selling sustainably and, should you have an online store, ensuring you have your delivery services up-to-speed.
As ever, we continue to highlight the best new products to market, so if you’re looking to evolve your store’s offering, head over to our New Product feature. Likewise, our company profile on Rodney Holman gives an insight into how this industry stalwart has stood the test of time.
Enjoy the issue!

Merci Maman founder Beatrice de Montille shares how the company holds motherhood at the heart of everything it does, and how it grew from a work-from-home job to the successful jewellery business it is today. Beatrice de Montille started Merci Maman over 15 years ago. After the birth of her second child, her employer rejected her request for a part-time role and she couldn't get the work-life balance she needed, so she started her own activity, originally as a sole trader working from home.
However, she always had that entrepreneurial flare. She was hoping to create a few jobs but did not envisage that it would become so big.
The company has had over 60 employees spread between London, Paris and Belin at the peak last year!
Ronin Jewellery designs and makes all of its jewellery in its own studio, and is proud of the fact that the brand is British made. When did you start up and why? We (Simon Morton & Kay Griffith) set up Ronin Designs in 1997 but at that time we were producing greetings cards. We didn't start doing jewellery until 2009 and we quickly decided to focus on that, giving up greetings cards. What prompted you to launch the business? We both have a creative background in photography and textile design respectively and we wanted to work together.
