Good to know about your industry

Christmas starts in October

  • Customers look at Christmas gifts and offers as early as October.
  • Gifting days during the year (Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day in Sweden) give small peaks to plan for.
  • Clear delivery dates before Christmas make more people dare to order.
