Christmas in July! What started in 1933, at an all-girls camp in Brevard, North Carolina, might just be the key to a successful and stress-free holiday season.
To say the past 2.5 years have been a roller coaster is an understatement. It’s difficult to predict what the future may hold. With the possibility of increased supply chain issues, inventory uncertainty, and rising inflation and interest rates, getting a head start on your holiday shopping is more important than ever before.
Cozy up watching your favourite Hallmark holiday movie and take a look at all the reasons why you should start your holiday shopping soon!
Supply chain uncertainty:
Although we may be nearing the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, the ripple effects from the past 2.5 years are still felt across the globe. Logistic disruptions in the flow of consumer goods and delays in international travel are causing pile ups and delays at shipping ports, making it difficult to guarantee a quick turn around for some products. By shopping in July, you are not only giving yourself ample amounts of time for shipping, you’re also giving yourself plenty of time for stock to replenish.
Inventory Issues:
During the holiday season, lots of time is spent shopping for holiday gifts, but with limited quantities, it can be difficult to find exactly what you’re looking for. Get a head start now to make sure you don’t run out of options come December. Supply shortages and increased demand make inventory during the holiday season difficult to secure! Don’t miss out, here are some trendy gifting items that are sure to be popular this holiday season:
Increasing Prices:
Due to a combination of logistical disruptions, supply chain issues and limited inventory, prices have been rising. You may have noticed this in your local supermarket; however, this is an issue felt across the globe. The holiday season is already an expensive time of year, give yourself a head start and save a few extra dollars by shopping early and avoiding the possibility of rising prices, and rising interest rates.
